Is there a way to reset the status of an HTTP node ?

After a flow of POST requests if there is an error then this is shown in red under the HTTP node (eg: EHOSTUNREACH) - how to remove ?

I have tried sending a blank message and a blank object in msg.status

This is purely aesthetic and is not impacting the flow as i am catching the errors

@s1nbad Welcome to the forum Peter!

- What version of Node-RED and node.js are you running? (you can get these from the start up log)
- Can you export\* and attach a small sample flow showing the issue? That will make it easier for people to help you.

`*` In order to make code readable and usable it is necessary to surround your code with three backticks (also known as a left quote or backquote `````)

````auto
``` 
   code goes here 
```

You can edit and correct your post by clicking the pencil ✏ icon.
