Hello,

**I need to decode payload outside of TTN** (over node-red or thingsboard).  
But I can’t find the TTN setting to received the payload.  
I have tried with “HTTP integration” (from TTN to HTTP callback server) and"TTN integration connector" in thingsboard but the problem is still the same:  
I get only “payload\_raw”, not payload I show in red bellow:

For example, in HTTP callback I have:  
BODY  
{ mode: ‘JSON’ }  
HEADERS  
{ host: xxxxxxxxxx’,  
‘user-agent’: ‘http-ttn/2.6.0’,  
‘content-length’: ‘677’,  
‘content-type’: ‘application/json’,  
‘accept-encoding’: ‘gzip’ }  
BODY  
{ app\_id: ‘xxxxxx’,  
dev\_id: ‘xxxxxxxx’,  
hardware\_serial: ‘xxxxxxxxxx’,  
port: 3,  
counter: 190,  
payload\_raw: ‘AdyBBoIs/RM=’,  
payload\_fields: { port: 3 },  
metadata:  
{ time: ‘2019-10-26T07:16:06.512317647Z’,  
frequency: 867.3,  
modulation: ‘LORA’,  
data\_rate: ‘SF7BW125’,  
coding\_rate: ‘4/5’,  
gateways:  
[ { gtw\_id: ‘eui-xxxxxxxxx’,  
timestamp: 2063664339,  
time: ‘2019-10-26T07:16:06.489734Z’,  
channel: 4,  
rssi: -66,  
snr: 10,  
rf\_chain: 0,  
latitude: xxxxxxxx,  
longitude: 3.9148493,  
location\_source: ‘registry’ } ] },  
downlink\_url:  
‘[https://integrations.thethingsnetwork.org/ttn-eu/api/v2/down/xxxxxxx](https://integrations.thethingsnetwork.org/ttn-eu/api/v2/down/xxxxxxx)’ }

Can you tell how to get “payload” please ?

Have a good day!

Loic

Hi

payload\_raw is just the same payload encoded in base64.

Try to paste “AdyBBoIs/RM=” in this site [https://cryptii.com/pipes/base64-to-hex](https://cryptii.com/pipes/base64-to-hex) you will see you get the corresponding hex.  
There is plugin in node red to decode base64.

I confirm : it works now.  
raw\_payload is now ready to use (same as “payload” with [https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-contrib-ttn](https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-contrib-ttn))

The ticket can be close…

Thanks,
