# receiveWebSocket

Canonical ID: `network.receiveSocket`.

```text
receiveWebSocket(handle)
```

Receives a UTF-8 text message as value from an openWebSocket handle. Limits: 64 KiB per message, 256 messages, 1 MiB combined traffic, 10 seconds per operation and two minutes per connection. Binary messages fail.

Returns a Map with `ok`, `status`, `value` and `error`. Check `ok` before using `value`; denial or an unavailable host is a structured failure.

Requires Creator Pro or its technical trial for IDE/CLI run and build. Available on desktop, CLI and supported native exports; not in the public playground. Source remains editable in Learner. Generated apps have no Pliro licence check.

## Call example

See the [advanced application guide](../guides/advanced-applications.md) for declarations, explicit host permissions and complete examples. This call assumes the required permissions; `handle` means the `value` from a successful open operation.

```text
receiveWebSocket(handle)
```
