Task Triggers > WebSocket Client On Message

This trigger responds to messages sent by the server the client is connected to. This can be a WebSocket server send message or any other applications or scripts that support WebSocket connections as a server.

WebSocket Client

Choose the WebSocket client from the list. If you edit a network task, the list is not available and you have to enter the client ID manually (see WS Connection manager->Clients->Advanced). If the client ID is incorrect, the action will get an "Invalid WS Client ID" run-time error.

WS Client Manager

You can view or edit lists of registered WebSocket servers and clients (see WS Connection Manager).
