I need to Upscale a volatile layer. But since it cannot be modified, I would need to "clone" it.
Is there a way to delete layers w/o having to nuke the entire catalog/permissions/etc?
You can delete a volatile layer through the REST API. The OLP CLI and Portal UI currently do not support layer deletion.
HERE Open Location Platform added support to delete volatile layers as part of OLP 2.5 release. The release notes can be found here: https://developer.here.com/olp/documentation/release-notes/location_platform_data_processing_release_notes_olp/release_notes/2.5.0.html
Please note that only volatile, stream and index layers can be deleted. You can delete layers using web UI, OLP CLI and REST API.
