AI-generatedSummary
Edits the content of an existing message in a Pumble channel.
Inputs
- channelId (required) — The channel where the message was sent. Note: editing DM messages is not supported by the Pumble API. Choose from the list, or specify an ID using an expression.
- messageId (required) — The ID of the message to edit.
- text (required) — The new text that will replace the current message content entirely.
Output shape
The edited message object returned by the Pumble API as a JSON array.
The API responds with the updated message data; n8n constructs execution metadata wrapping this result.
Examples
Example 1: Replace the text of a message with ID MSG1234567890 in channel C123
Set channelId to the target channel, messageId to 'MSG1234567890', and text to the replacement content.
Example 2: DM editing is not supported; using this operation on a direct message will fail or produce no effect per the Pumble API.
Always use a channel ID (not a direct message user ID) when editing messages.
Example 3: Bulk edit with expressions
Populate channelId and messageId via workflow expressions; text can be dynamically generated from previous nodes.
