This looks simple, but why is there no delete button on directories?
I want to delete a delta table by just clicking delete on table directory from the UI.. its only there on object level at the moment. But that's a bit pointless with 100s of parquet files :p

Hi @Ion we have this issue for something similar to what you ask. You can add the additional functionality request on it (as it doesn't directly talk about prefixes).
In the meantime you can use lakectl or the SDKs to achieve deletion of a prefix

Right, yeah I don't really use lakectl. I don't like how the secrets are stored in a yaml on my laptop

I'll make a script instead with the python SDK

HL Python SDK provides you with a delete_objects method on a branch
