# MQTT node

Use the MQTT node to automate work in MQTT, and integrate MQTT with other applications. Automated Workflows supports transporting messages with MQTT.

On this page, you'll find a list of operations the MQTT node supports and links to more resources.

Credentials
Refer to [MQTT credentials](/guides/automated-workflows/integrations/builtin/credentials/mqtt) for guidance on setting up authentication.

## Operations

Use the MQTT node to send a message. You can set the message topic, and choose whether to send the node input data as part of the message.
