Use Pipeline to Remove an attachment from a field

Does anyone know how to remove/delete an attachment from a field using a pipeline?  I'm trying to use "update record" and am not seeing any option to remove an attachment. It looks like the attachment...

I know it can be done with an API call and a Pipeline can call an API. 
Here is a partial pseudo example where fid 9 was a file attachment.

?act=API_EditRecord
&rid=43
&_fid_9=
&delfile_fid_9=1


So I think that you can do like this

https://mycompany.quickbase.com/db/xxxxxxx?a=API_EditRecord&rid={{a.id}}&_fid_9=&delfile_fid_9=1
Method = POST

I have not tested this though. Let us know if it works.
