Clear App Data

[Sgilk]

After uninstalling Node-Red, the app data persists on the core. When reinstalled, the flows and configuration are the same. Is there any way to remove app data without entirely resetting the core?

Hi Sgilk,

an online editor is coming soon.

In the meanwhile you can login via webdav and delete the data you want.

I always do this trough the configurations. If you have a core with an empty Node-Red you can store the configuration and download the ZIP file. When opening the ZIP file with 7zip you can remove everthing except the Node-Red part. When you upload such a configuration to the other CORE you overwrite the Node-Red config. No need to re-install Node-Red. Reboot is required.

This is what I keep in the ZIP

The same whay I am deploying Node-Red flows on multiple cores. I understand that in future we can use the Setup app for tis but have not experienced with it so far.

To completely empty your configuration you can choose the "Reset" command. Beware that all data stored in the active configuration will be lost.
