I can use this method to add a new series to the chart:
chart.addSeries({
name: 'New Series',
data: [551,233,3233]
});
But I couldn't find a way to remove it. There is no removeSeries or deleteSeries functions in the API. How can I Do that?
Here is the code snippet:
window.chart = Highcharts.chart('container', {
title: {
text: 'U.S Solar Employment Growth by Job Category, 2010-2020'
},
subtitle: {
text: 'Source: <a href="https://irecusa.org/programs/solar-jobs-census/" target="_blank">IREC</a>'
},

title: {
text: 'Number of Employees'
}
},

}
},
