First off, I’ve never used PosrqreSQL but I have a few questions for you.

- where are you using the storage API? In what node?
- what palette are you referring to? The palette manager in the sidebar?
- what version of NR and node.js are you running?

Remember when you ask a question, you know what you are talking about, but without background no one else will know your environment.

Some of the suggestions in this [FAQ](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/note-to-new-forum-members/71295) might help you fill in the needed background information.

Thank sir for your reply  
I used **[Storage API](https://nodered.org/docs/api/storage/)** to store Node-RED runtime data in a PostgreSQL database.  
`settings.js` code

```auto
module.exports = {
    ...
    storageModule: require("./pgstorage"),
    ...
};

```

on my **pgstorage.js** file contains all the methods for the storage module  
[https://github.com/e-labInnovations/ashad-red/blob/5c983141204a2b3e47276553dd57f3a3b9c38768/pgstorage.js](https://github.com/e-labInnovations/ashad-red/blob/5c983141204a2b3e47276553dd57f3a3b9c38768/pgstorage.js)

Node-RED version: v3.0.2  
Node.js version: v18.12.1

@e-labInnovations

Can you be more specific about what option you are missing?

Do you mean the button in the Palette Manager you can use to remove a module? Perhaps you can share a screenshot to help make it clear.
