Acknowledge

Use this node when you want to explicitly mark a message as successfully processed without waiting for downstream nodes to complete. It acknowledges the message immediately and forwards it via the Success connection so the rest of the rule chain can continue processing.

This node requires no configuration.

  1. The node receives the incoming message.
  2. The message is immediately acknowledged — the platform records it as successfully processed.
  3. The message is forwarded to downstream nodes via the Success connection.
Connection Condition
Success Always — the message was acknowledged and forwarded.
