The **WebSocket Client Send Node** sends a message via the open *WebSocket* connection specified in `Configuration`.

**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 **WebSocket Client Send** 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**.
