Send Broadcast Message

Sending a message from device to device creates a series of jobs in Meshblu Core.

Basic Rules:

• Only publish to Redis in *Received jobs
• Subscription* jobs can only create other Subscription* jobs
• *Receieved jobs can only create *Received jobs

Scenario: Device A broadcasts a message, Device B is subscribed to A
