Hello is there an API call from within PSOC Creator or to include in code to conduct a full-chip erase in a manner analogous to what you may do with an external programmer?  Thank you.

Hello Rick,

  There is no option (in PSoC Creator)/ Flash API  to 'Erase the Entire Flash'. However, there are APIs to perform the row level operation. Please refer the system reference guide ( Open PSoC Creator -> Help-> System Reference Guide ).

Using the PSoC Programmer to erase the chip would be more effective, as I believe you can do what you are asking in that software.

(There is no identical operation/button inside the PSoC Creator IDE however as gyan​ stated)
