I have a payload msg that is being sent, it has a string of text that I need to type into a specific text box that is moving through the flow. how can I get the string of text out of node red and typed into a text box?
You can use the debug node.
1 - Add A debug node
2 - Connect it to the output of whatever it is your need to copy text from
3 - Open up the debug panel
4 - Copy what you want
I have noticed being able to do that, is there a way to do that with out needing to manually do it? the idea is for it to copy and paste it automatically. one thought i was having is using the execute node and if there is a command line to put it that would copy the most current string value from debug node? but i havent been able to find anything like that either.
is there a way to do that with out needing to manually do it?
Not to my knowledge.
the msg travelling though your flow - is not actually seen by the browser - unless you attach a debug node for it to be printed - where the normal copy/paste rules apply
Where exactly are you trying to paste the result to? Is it a particular web page or application?
An application
Does it possibly have an API so you can send the data programatically?
