The inject node cannot be programmatically set, but you can do what you want in another way - check out Colin's neat solution or the sophisticated node-red-contrib-msg-resend node.

What I am wanting to do: As is, I have an inject node running injects every 10 seconds. To change that, I have to edit the node and deploy. I would like to be able to adjust the time. Am I missing a better suited node, or can I control the INJECT node with global. or flow. variables? Thanks.
