I am trying to get the Ignition Client OPC UA to work on Ignition Edge. I used the wizard to set up the connection. everything is localhost because the gateway is on the same PC as the Ignition Edge. I am using version 8.1.24 What am I doing wrong? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/8/2/82ef7bd8b263c62687ed1b90bd03a2db9ee26faf.png) ---

I forgot to add the error message.

strange, but I turned security mode back on and I set the password back to the default password and now it works? ---

so the message is a bit confusing. I turned security back off and indeed I get the message again that it can not find its endpoint. Turn the security back on and everything works as expected. ---

By default the server is configured to only allow secured connections at the session endpoint. By changing it to unsecured there's no longer a matching endpoint to connect to. ---

I can agree with that, what threw me off was the description. If the description had mentioned the security and endpoint that would have been helpful. I spend an hour trying to figure it out. ---

Yeah I suppose it could be better. There's a bunch of things it looks for to determine if an endpoint matches what has been configured, not just security, so it's pretty generic as it is right now. ---

Yes I know. I understand.
