Unsubscribe

Unsubscribe stops the subscription and cleans up resources. Use this when you no longer need to receive events from a specific event path, such as when shutting down a service, removing a feature, or cleaning up temporary subscriptions.

Usage

Node.js
Python

const subscription = await client.subscribe("order/created");

// Later, when done
await subscription.unsubscribe();

subscription = await client.subscribe("order/created")

# Later, when done
await subscription.unsubscribe()

When to Use

Service shutdown: Clean up before stopping your application
Feature removal: Stop receiving events for deprecated features
Temporary subscriptions: End subscriptions created for one-time operations
Resource cleanup: Free up connections and memory

Pause vs Unsubscribe

Action	Events Queued	Reconnect	Use Case
Pause	Yes	`continue()`	Temporary stop, maintenance
Unsubscribe	No	New subscription	Permanent stop, cleanup

After unsubscribing, you’ll need to create a new subscription to receive events again.
