Hello @adeoduye ,

The message has to be something like this:

```
rostopic pub /move_base/goal move_base_msgs/MoveBaseActionGoal "header:
  seq: 0
  stamp:
    secs: 0
    nsecs: 0
  frame_id: ''
goal_id:
  stamp:
    secs: 0
    nsecs: 0
  id: ''
goal:
  target_pose:
    header:
      seq: 0
      stamp:
        secs: 0
        nsecs: 0
      frame_id: 'map'
    pose:
      position:
        x: 1.0
        y: 2.5
        z: 0.0
      orientation:
        x: 0.0
        y: 0.0
        z: 0.75
        w: 0.66"

```

You don’t have to fill all the data in the **header** section, except for the **frame\_id** argument in the **goal** section.

Best,
