Yes, I knew what you meant.

You probably wanted to know how as well?

The issue is that there are many ways so your question didn't give us enough information to give you a more sensible answer. Plenty of people are using NR to do this.

My favourite way is to connect NR to the Telegram messaging service. NR acts as a "bot" which uses all of the security of Telegram which is generally a lot easier than trying to keep Node-RED itself secure as a web app exposed to the Internet.

There are some relevant examples on the flows site.
