Hi, I just need a simple way to convert a true or false to 1 or 0 from a payload message . Any help would be much appreciated :pray:

Hi @bceyresy , The below will do it. msg.payload = Number(msg.payload) The JSONata way $number(payload)

Thank you very much. Works fine.

Or msg.payload += 0; return msg; Or low code In a change node you can use the change option [{"id":"43677a7267cf52d6","type":"inject","z":"b779de97.b1b46","name":"","props":[{"p":"payload"},{"p":"topic","vt":"str"}],"repeat":"","crontab":"","once":false,"onceDelay":0.1,"topic":"","payload":"true…

Thanks E1Ccid. Both work well. I have another question, I have 2 Sources of MQTT data coming in, i need a function that deducts them from each other. The issue is there is a slight delay between messages coming in, so i dont get the output. [admin, have move this to its own topic.]
