I am interested in creating a featuretype (layer) in Geoserver using the REST API without the calculation of the bounding boxes (maybe to define them through a parameter during the POST). I want this because the calculation of the bbox is to heavy and i can use the layer without calculating them.
Is this possible?
My code:
POST /rest/workspaces/topp/datastores/ds1/featuretypes
<featureType>
<name>layer1</name>
</featureType>
