Delete Vector Index
Delete an existing vector similarity search index.
This endpoint removes the specified index from the database. Important considerations:
- Deletion is permanent and cannot be undone
- Underlying vector data remains intact
- Queries will fall back to sequential scan
- Running queries during deletion may be slower
- Use run_with_orchestration=True for large indices to prevent timeouts
- Consider index dependencies before deletion
The operation returns immediately but cleanup may continue in background.
