Detaches the file from the task and returns the updated task. The file is addressed in the path rather than a request body, since bodies on
DELETE are unreliable through proxies.
Pass an id from the task’s input_files or output_files. Attaching stores a copy with a new id, so the id you attached is not on the task. An id the task does not list is a 404.
Detaching deletes the task’s copy, unless a comment or a thread message still shows it. The original file you attached is not touched.
