Hi Everyone,

I have data stored in MySQL database. When I go to Ignition Designer, where can I find that data?

Thanks,

Nak

Well, you can open the Query Browser from the menu bar under Tools. That will allow you to see the raw data. You can also see the data from a transaction group. You would benefit from an Ignition demonstration. You should contact your sales rep to schedule a demo or schedule one here:
