Hi guys. Can you please let me know how I can sum the number of payloads in each 10 min and send it to the debug node? Thank you so much

P.S: I already have the counter of payload from the beginning but I was asked to send the quantity of payload in each 10 min .

If you used an inject node set to 10mins, you could use the output to reset your total every 10 mins.

Or store the total every ten mins with a inject and calculate the difference from last storing of total.

Thank you so much, I also found the message counter node and it works too.

You can use

> **[node-red-contrib-timed-counter](https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-contrib-timed-counter)**
>
> A Node-RED node that counts messages received in a specified time limit

And set an inject node which sends msg.reset every 10 min

Hi, not 100% certain if it is the sum total of payload values or count of payloads but here is a demo that should cater for both...
