Customize Noise Markers While Keeping the Default Cluster Theme

Symptoms
============

You may experience one or more of the following when attempting to upload data through Platform Portal:

The Upload data option is not available from the layer menu.
The More menu does not display an upload option.
Data upload fails because the selected layer does not support uploads through Portal.
You cannot upload files larger than 5000 MB through Platform Portal.
You can view a catalog and layer but cannot write data to it.

Answer
==========

Data uploads through HERE Platform Portal are supported only for versioned layers and are limited to 5000 MB per upload. If the Upload data option is unavailable, or if uploads cannot be completed, verify that the target layer is versioned and that you have write permissions for the catalog.

Root Cause
==============

Platform Portal supports interactive uploads only for versioned layers. Non-versioned layers require alternative upload methods such as the Command Line Interface (CLI), Data API, or REST API. In addition, Portal enforces a maximum upload size of 5000 MB. Users without write access to the catalog can browse catalog content but cannot upload data.

Expected Behavior
=====================

Upload data is available for versioned layers when the user has write permissions.
Files up to 5000 MB can be uploaded through Platform Portal.
Uploaded data becomes available for inspection after the upload completes successfully.

Unexpected Behavior
=======================

Upload data is missing for a versioned layer despite having the required permissions.
Upload attempts fail even though the file size is below 5000 MB.
* The layer is versioned and writable, but the upload workflow is unavailable.

If these conditions occur, verify the layer configuration and user permissions.

How to Upload Data to a Versioned Layer Using Platform Portal
=================================================================

1. Sign in to your Platform Portal realm.
2. Open Data from the Launcher.
3. Search for and open the target catalog.
4. From the catalog overview page, select the versioned layer that will receive the data.
5. On the layer overview page, select More.
6. Click Upload data.
7. Choose a file from your local system.
8. Select Upload and wait for the operation to complete.
9. After completion, inspect the uploaded data in Platform Portal.

Impact
==========

If the target layer is non-versioned, if the file exceeds 5000 MB, or if the user lacks write permissions, uploads through Platform Portal will not be possible. Alternative upload methods such as CLI, Data API, or REST API should be used when Portal limitations apply.

Recommended Actions
=======================

1. Confirm that the target layer is a versioned layer.
2. Verify that the upload file size does not exceed 5000 MB.
3. Ensure you have write access to the catalog.
4. Contact the catalog owner if additional permissions are required.
5. Use CLI, Data API, or REST API for non-versioned layers or larger data uploads.
