# Action `send_photo`

> **System ID:** `action_send_photo`

## Description

Sends one or more photos through the current channel. Configuration is stored in the node JSON: keys are labels, values are URLs (with placeholders). Alternative: take a photo object from an array in a constant via `constant` + `key`.

## Events (scenario branches)

No named scenario branches (channel handler result, not a branching event).

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|-----------|------|----------|---------|-------------|
| *(photo labels)* | string | no | — | Photo URL; key — label, value — URL (placeholders) |
| `constant` | string | no | — | Constant name with an array of photo objects |
| `key` | string | no | `0` | Index / key of the array element (placeholders) |

## Configuration example

```json
{
  "product": "https://example.com/images/product.jpg",
  "detail": "{{photo_url}}"
}
```

Or from a constant:

```json
{
  "constant": "photos",
  "key": "{{selected_photo_index}}"
}
```
