A Node-Red wrapper for Logsene

It makes your "Things" logging to the cloud. Where else? On your device is not much space!

The node-red-contrib-logsene node makes it easy to log directly from node-red to Logsene by Sematext. If no text is specified in "msg.log" it logs "msg.payload". In any case it adds the complete msg object as JSON object.
