is there such a thing as particle.unclaimDevice similar to particle.claimDevice?? Yes, I saw the document for curl command for uncliaming the device.

Thanks.

I believe `particle.removeDevice` is what you want.

That does a HTTP DELETE on the /v1/devices/:deviceID endpoint like the unclaim a device example does.
