The **On WebSocket Receive Node** is an **Event Listener Node** that is triggered if the *Websocket* connection received a message during any action for the selected configuration, which was established in the [**Project Settings**](https://docs.incari.com/incari-studio/modules/project-settings/websocket).

**WebSocket Communication** in **Incari** is available as a plugin and is enabled as default. However, in the case that it is disabled in the **Plugins Editor**, it will not appear in the **Project Settings** and **On WebSocket Receive** will not show up in the [**Toolbox**](https://docs.incari.com/incari-studio/toolbox/overview). Please refer to the [**Plugins Editor**](https://docs.incari.com/incari-studio/modules/plugins) to find out more information.

[**Scope**](https://docs.incari.com/incari-studio/overview#scopes): **Project**, **Scene**.
