I have a mqtt in node which is connected to a mosquitto broker. When a message is published to the broker, I have a function which converts the message to a dynamodb record item. Now I need to point this record in dynamodb node (got it from node-red-aws-contrib) for putitem. How do I reference the item in the node?
