Deleting a table using REST API?

Is it possible to delete a table in a dataset using the REST API?

 

According to this post it is possible:

https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Developer/Getting-HTTP-error-429-while-deleting-the-table/td-p/1936...

 

But the docs do not mention it, and my own attempts were unsuccesful with a 404 error.

 

C# code:

string url = $"https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/datasets/{datasetId}/tables/{tableName}"; 
HttpWebRequest request = System.Net.WebRequest.Create(url) as System.Net.HttpWebRequest;
request.KeepAlive = true;
request.Method = "DELETE";

//Add token to the request header
request.Headers.Add("Authorization", String.Format("Bearer {0}", token));

using (var response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse()) // needed!
{

}
