Hi all

I’m curious if anyone has migrated FT Historian SE to Ignition Historian? Rockwell seems to stand in the way any way they can in the off the shelf version. I see there are other tools that can be purchased.  
There is about 350 tags and two years of data that I would like to migrate.  
We are currently able to extract data through VantagePoint using the rest api tools, but we are limited in tag quantity and to a couple days before it overwhelms it. Scripting using the api tools is an option, but a painful one.

I’m looking to see what experiences others have had and what tools were successful.

Thank you
