Hi in my house i made a dashboard to manage my different api and connected device, and i make multiple buton to enable or disable a template but the button sends the change at all sessions, do you have a solution for this change to be targeted on a single session, can you help me?

When you click a ui-button it should have a `msg.socketid` property. If this is maintained on your msg through the flow then any things sent to the dashboard should only go back to that socketid.

Hi, sorry I didn't make myself understood, the problems (there are two):  
First the change triggered by the button applies to the template on all sessions despite the msg.socketid being good and well sent.  
Second, when I do that I want to temporarily disable the button only for the user who clicked, but disabling the button applies to all sessions.
