Yeah, I would use DataStores for that. Check the store once every so often, and if there's something in it, create a new message with its value. Make sure to set it on a timer though, and make sure the server that initiates the message is also charged with clearing the datastore.

Otherwise I suppose you could use HttpService and check in intervals, doing a similar thing, but without needing to rely on ROBLOX's datastores.

Another alternative would be to constantly get information about an asset on-site (a model for example) and then you can change that model's description. In your code, you can relay this new description into a message
