if you are posting a question about how to do something in a node, it’s always worth stating which node you are using. there are lots of different chatbot-nodes listed on [flows.nodered.org](http://flows.nodered.org)

Each channel has an ID. You need to find that ID. Instructions are found in the docs for the node.
