Message → Send Channel Message
AI-generatedSummary
Sends the required text as a broadcast message on the selected MeshCore channel. With Reliable Delivery enabled, repeats the broadcast until a neighbor retransmits it or the configured attempts are exhausted; a missing retransmission causes the operation to fail.
Inputs
- Message (required) — Text to send.
- Channel Index (required) — Zero-based index of the channel to broadcast on; defaults to 0.
- Reliable Delivery — Defaults to false. When enabled, confirms delivery by listening for a neighbor to retransmit the broadcast over the radio; channels do not provide per-recipient acknowledgements.
- Channel Retries — Defaults to 3. With Reliable Delivery enabled, sets how many times to broadcast before giving up.
- Channel Echo Timeout (Ms) — Defaults to 8000. With Reliable Delivery enabled, sets how long to wait after each attempt for a neighbor retransmission before retrying.
Output shape
A single n8n item with the operation result.
The supplied source view does not expose the returned item fields. If reliable delivery is enabled and no neighbor retransmission is heard within the configured attempts, the operation throws an error.
