​
Returns

System.Threading.Tasks.Task<System.Boolean>

​
Remarks

Unpinning removes the file from your Pinata account but does not remove it from the IPFS network. The content may still be available if other nodes have pinned it or if it has been cached. Use this to manage storage costs by removing unneeded pins.
