Hi Ignition experts 😀

I'm Wondering if there is a way to disable resources on the gateway using some sort of scripting.

What I'd like to do is have a way that can be automated to disable some test projects, OPC-UA device connection and real time tag providers say once a week.

Is this possible?

Okay, thanks for the info.

I look forward to these changes being brought in. Guess it will have to be done the old fashioned way in the meantime!
