Hi everybody,

I have an Ignition 8.0.4 Edge version and would like to do a drop or truncate table to the internal database. Do you know some way to do it?  
Is it possible?

Regards.

Shut the service down. Make a backup. Open the internal database with a Sqlite3 tool. Make your modifications. Start the service back up.

Don’t ask for help with the contents. If it isn’t obvious to you, you don’t belong in there. If you screw something up that looked obvious but wasn’t, don’t expect to get any help. Certainly not from IA.

We have stopped service, delete the IDB file and start again and all was good.

Thank you very much Phil.
