public function Dispose(): void;

Description

Signals that this [UnityWebRequest] is no longer being used, and should clean up any resources it is using.

You must call Dispose once you have finished using a [UnityWebRequest] object, regardless of whether the request succeeded or failed.

For safety, it is usually a best practice to employ the using statement to ensure that a [UnityWebRequest] is properly cleaned up in case of uncaught exceptions.
