# Unpublish Content

> Unpublish content without creating a new version

Changes published content's status to unpublished without creating a new version. This removes the content from end user access while preserving the version history.

## Path Parameters

<ParamField path="organizationId" type="string" required>
  Organization ID
</ParamField>

<ParamField path="projectId" type="string" required>
  Project ID
</ParamField>

<ParamField path="id" type="string" required>
  Content ID
</ParamField>

## Response

Returns the unpublished Content object.

```json theme={null}
{
  "id": "cont123",
  "typeId": "ct123",
  "typeVersion": 2,
  "version": 2,
  "lastPublishedVersion": 2,
  "packageVersion": "1.0.0",
  "name": "Getting Started Guide",
  "status": "unpublished",
  "isTemplate": false,
  "content": { ... },
  "compiled": "const body = () => { ... }",
  "tags": ["Tutorial"],
  "metadata": { ... },
  "createdAt": "2024-03-20T10:00:00Z",
  "updatedAt": "2024-03-22T10:00:00Z"
}
```

<Note>
  Unpublishing does not increment the version number. The `lastPublishedVersion` remains unchanged, allowing you to re-publish at the same version or make modifications first.
</Note>

```json theme={null}
{
  "error": {
    "code": "INVALID_STATUS",
    "message": "Cannot unpublish: content is not currently published"
