How to remove the _msgid?

General
1

Hi There, how can I remove the "_msgid" from the Object array? I want to store the data "PIR01" in InfluxDB, but not the msgid.The msg Object looks like this:

{"PIR01":0,"_msgid":"7fa2112a.cc128"}

PLS help! :slight_smile:

Store your data in a msg property and use that for the database. I.e. usually folk use msg.payload and therefore msg._msgid is of no consequence.

Assuming that you want to use node-red-contrib-influxdb, then the data for the db must be in msg.payload, as described in the node's help text. Therefore msg._msgid is irrelevant. It does not matter whether it is there or not.

Oh nice, now it works! Thanks! :slight_smile:
