The configuration node is used to receive in NodeRED configuration data defined in the Mission Control dashboard.

Warning! To correctly use this node it might be necessary to develop a specific plugin for Mission Control.

A configuration is an custom payload related to a plugin and it’s identified by a “namespace”. For example a plugin for answering about the opening hours of a shop could have a configuration panel to define the timetable, in that case the namespace could be “opening-hours”.
