how to remove plugins object types from the permissions page?

[goteamkor]

I installed phonebox_plugin : https://github.com/iDebugAll/phonebox_plugin

Wasn't good fit for our use case, so I uninstalled it.
I followed the procedures here: https://netboxlabs.com/docs/netbox/en/stable/plugins/removal/

including dropping the tables and removing the django migration records.
Restarted netbox, but when I go to the 'permissions' section I notice that the following are still listed in object types.

How do I get rid of these from the permissions editor?

My first guess would be this is showing all entries from the django_content_type table.

# /opt/netbox/venv/bin/python /opt/netbox/netbox/manage.py nbshell
...
>>> from django.contrib.contenttypes.models import ContentType
>>> ContentType.objects.all()
<QuerySet [<ContentType: logentry>, <ContentType: Authentication and Authorization | group>,
...
>>> ContentType.objects.filter(model="interface")
<QuerySet [<ContentType: DCIM | interface>]>
>>>

im sorry, im unable to follow your post. is what you posted instructions on how to remove things? or just providing further context?

I'm showing you how to isolate the problem. I have a theory, which is that the models still exist in the django_content_type table; you can either confirm or deny that.

If it's confirmed, then you can try deleting the corresponding objects. In nbshell you'd use the delete() method on an object instance or a queryset. In psql you'd use DELETE FROM django_content_type WHERE <suitable condition>. Pick whichever you're most comfortable with.

Make sure you have a full backup of your database before starting this, as documented here.

I'm not sure how running the commands in your first reply confirms anything about the issue above. I've never used nbshell before.

user@dc1-netbox-p01:~$ sudo /opt/netbox/venv/bin/python /opt/netbox/netbox/manage.py nbshell
### NetBox interactive shell (dc1-netbox-p01)
### Python 3.10.12 | Django 5.0.7 | NetBox 4.0.8
### lsmodels() will show available models. Use help(<model>) for more info.

Try that:

sudo /opt/netbox/venv/bin/python /opt/netbox/netbox/manage.py nbshell
>>> from django.contrib.contenttypes.models import ContentType
>>> ct_qs = ContentType.objects.filter(app_label__icontains="phone")
>>> for ct in ct_qs:
...          print(ct)
### ^^^ These will be removed, make sure its ok
>>> ct_qs.delete()

>>> from django.contrib.contenttypes.models import ContentType
>>> ct_qs = ContentType.objects.filter(app_label__icontains="phone")
>>> for ct in ct_qs: print(ct)
...
number
voicecircuit
>>> ct_qs.delete()
(12, {'auth.Permission': 8, 'users.ObjectPermission_object_types': 2, 'contenttypes.ContentType': 2})
