Extracts every .zip archive from the file pin into a fresh temp folder and outputs the extracted entries on file as {filename, path, type} objects; non-zip entries in the pin are skipped. success (the condition pin) is true with an empty file array when the pin is empty : that is not a failure. Extraction aborts with success=false, file=nil and the reason on value when a single file exceeds 1 GiB (UNZIPPED_FILE_TOO_BIG), the total exceeds 4 GiB (UNZIPPED_ARCHIVE_TOO_BIG), more than 50000 files would be written (UNZIPPED_TOO_MANY_FILES), or the archive cannot be read; a failed extraction deletes everything already written.

A typical wiring for unzip: a function trigger starts the flow; get file from assets feeds the file pin; the flow out pin feeds debug.
