Unable to Delete Layer on ArcGIS Online Account

[Kristofer]

Hi Everyone,

Some time ago, I published a point layer on the AGOL account. Now, I intend to delete this layer, but I am unable to do so. Please note the following:

• The "Delete Protection" option is not enabled for this feature layer.
• I am the owner of the layer.
• I have administrative privileges, with the "Creator" role assigned.
• I am listed as the administrative contact for the account.

To further investigate, I checked the browser's Developer Tools (Network tab), getting the following response:

{
"error": {
"code": 403,
"messageCode": "CONT_0166",
"message": "User does not have permissions.",
"details": [
"User does not have permissions."
]
}
}

I would appreciate your support in resolving this issue. If there is any additional information or steps you need from my side, please do let me know.

Hello @Kristofer, have you tried to change the ownership of this layer to another user and then try to delete it? (Can you actually change the ownership without getting error messages?)

There seem to be many things you have checked/tried already since you provided detailed info, but I'm curious to know.

Hi @rcGIS,

I changed the ownership of that layer and try to delete, the layer deleted successfully. 

Its magic!!

Thank you very much...
