Hi everyone,  
Sometimes, I have a problem when I publish (update) my node to [https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-red-contrib-google-chat-bot](https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-red-contrib-google-chat-bot). But I don't see change on [https://flows.nodered.org/](https://flows.nodered.org/).  
For example:  
[https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-contrib-google-chat-bot](https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-contrib-google-chat-bot) (version 0.0.2)  
[https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-red-contrib-google-chat-bot](https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-red-contrib-google-chat-bot) (version 0.0.4)

[https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-contrib-image-simple-node](https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-contrib-image-simple-node) (version 0.0.8)  
[https://npmjs.org/package/node-red-contrib-image-simple-node](https://npmjs.org/package/node-red-contrib-image-simple-node) (version 0.0.9)

I have sent a mail to the group npm and request refresh my package, but I don't see the update on my Flow

Thanks,  
Hien

Sorry, sir,  
Although I see to changed version 0.0.9 on [https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-contrib-image-simple-node](https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-contrib-image-simple-node). But in node-red, I only see this node with the old version (0.0.8).

Hi @taminhhienmor

you should have seen this post pinned to the forum: [How to add/update nodes to the Flow Library](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/how-to-add-update-nodes-to-the-flow-library/25294)

That explains the new way to refresh nodes - to request the refresh via the node's page.

Who did you email exactly? I didn't see anything, nor did we see any requests for the nodes to be refreshed via the node's page on the Flow Library.

I've received a mail when I public node. They said to me when I have questions, I can send them to email [support@npmjs.com](mailto:support@npmjs.com).

@taminhhienmor for future reference, the npm organisation have nothing to do with the Node-RED flow library. If a node is up to date on npm, but not on the flow library, then there is literally nothing npm can do about that for you.

As I hope you now understand, you are able to request a refresh on the flow library directly on the flow library itself.
