Is it possible to set a Global Configuration Node's properties from within a node?
In my use-case, I would like to use a Dashboard UI to allow a user to specify some information, which in turn will be used to set the properties of a Global Configuration node.
Specifically, I would like the user to enter FTP details through a node-red-dashboard page, and have these details populate the configuration of node-red-contrib-advanced-ftp
Is this something that is possible?
No responses 
so updating with my own findings.
It would seem that it's not possible to do unless the specific node in question was created in a way to allow for configuration properties to be passed to it via a message.
That is generally correct, yes.
