Hello,

In a Function Node, I tried to install `@azure/openai@1.0.0-beta.12` but get error while installing the module.

- It works with `@azure/openai` but install the v2.x and break a lot of things.
- It works with npm install in node-red data folder

May be I'm using the wrong syntax in the Function node ?

_Side Question_: How/When does it clean it's package.json file ? For install I installed `@tensorflow/tfjs` then `@tensorflow/tfjs-node` I see in the package.json the first one is still there

You can not install specific versions, it will always install the latest.

The function node will not uninstall nodes when they are removed from the setup tab
