What is Node-RED and how do we use it in Deskonline?

I am excited to share with you an introductory video on Node-RED and how it is an integral part of Deskonline.


Node-RED is a powerful visual tool for wiring together the Internet of Things, APIs, and online services. With its easy-to-use interface and extensive library of pre-built nodes, Node-RED makes it easy for developers to connect and control devices and data streams.


At Deskonline, we have integrated Node-RED into our platform to help our customers:

  • build custom workflows; and
  • automate business processes.

With Node-RED, our customers can create complex workflows by simply dragging and dropping nodes onto a canvas and connecting them together.

This allows our customers to automate tasks such as sending notifications, generating reports, and integrating with other systems.


Node-RED is a key part of Deskonline’s mission to empower businesses to work more efficiently and effectively. By providing our customers with the tools they need to automate their workflows, we help them save time, reduce errors, and improve their bottom line.

If you’re interested in learning more about Node-RED, watch this video by Rob Marcer (Developer Educator at FlowForge).

Deskonline allows you to integrate your Deskonline content and permissions into an automated workflow, powered by Node-RED.

Feel free to reach out to us with any questions. We’d love to hear from you!

Everyone is using CAMUNDA…

At deskonline, we’ve built a Business Form and Automation System using Camunda as our shared workflow engine. We love it!



Our In-house built ‘CamundaTask’ application is the central hub, like “The Bridge of the USS Enterprise”.

This progressive single page Vue application interfaces the user with the Camunda workflow engine.

Here you start new process ‘instances’ and monitor personal or group assignment ‘task’ queues. Visual/colour feedback is given when user tasks become due or requires a follow-up. The FormIO forms are stored within the Nextcloud filesystem and are 100% dynamic and use plugins like Google street validation and reCAPTCHA. It’s powerful stuff!


JBoss KeyCloak is utilised for Identity and Access Management across Nextcloud, Camunda and NodeRED. Keycloak has a huge number of plugins including User Federation, Identity Brokering and Social Login. To name only a few!

NodeRED is loaded with over 100 enterprise ready ‘nodes’ (modules) within the palette. including OpenAPI, Oauth2, IBM Watson, InfluxDB, Dashboards, Azure AD-Auth, Social Media. I could go on!


We have included working demos, (some include Xero Accounting Oauth2/OpenAPI , MySQL/MariaDB CRUD via REST, FormIO form population, eMail Campaign, Nextcloud Calendar/Contacts, Python within NodeRED and a LinkedIn Post.)

…and it’s hosted and supported in Australia.

We love forms!

We love Forms! Forms is great for surveys, checklists, assessment templates, attendance registers…the list goes on!.

  • Forms are very easy to create with a sensible set of predefined answer options.
  • A link to the form can be shared easily with internal and external users.
  • Response data is collected and stored in your
  • deskonline.cloud workspace which makes .csv download and analysis of data super efficient (and secure).

No need to log into another platform then draw the data back to your shared workspace!

Check out this vid from the folks at Nextcloud to see how Forms works.
