Storage service - Delete a database

Question

Hello,

I made a TEST database in my application > Storage service. How to delete it ?

Moreover, when I run :

storageService.insertJSONDocument("options", "plqyers", "{\"name\":\"Nick\"}");

I got the error : 

{"app42Fault":{"httpErrorCode":400,"appErrorCode":2610,"message":"Bad Request","details":"The request parameters are invalid. Storage '[TEST]' already exists."}}

I can guess because I already created a database TEST. But why can't I make a new database in the same application ?

I am quite lost ...

Hi Manu,

Thanks for writing us.

Let me clear one thing that you are allowed to create one DB per app. 

You can create multiple collection in one DB.

Also i willl recommend you that kindly follow the FAQ which will clear some points for further queries.

Thanks.

Hello hs00105,

Thank you for the answer about one DB.
However I still don't know how to delete my test DB.

In the FAQ :

Can I delete my database in storage service?
You can delete database by deleting all your collections form AppHQQ console.

I can't do it through the AppHQ console. I only have 3 buttons : Save JSON, Remove collection and Remove JSON document.

Am I misunderstanding something ?

You have to select your collection one by one and press remove collection on it. This will truncate your database.
