Uploading a new layer

User story

The user has created or modified the geofence polygons of a layer, and stored them either in a Shapefile or WKT text file. To deploy them, the user submits the ZIP archive of the file (or several files in case of the Shapefile format) to the HERE Geofencing API.

You can also use the dashboard to upload and manage your geometries: Custom Locations Dashboard (PRD).
