Yes it is.

There’s a great page in the docs that will explain how to use the debug panel to find the right path to any data item.

[https://nodered.org/docs/user-guide/messages](https://nodered.org/docs/user-guide/messages)

As for pushing to an array, you will likely need to store the array in context & retrieve it for adding new data. Read up on node-red context.

Or possibly the join node set to manually crest an array of 60 items.
