Hello, I am testing out Ignition 8.3 and have updated the MQTT Engine module to 5.0.0

I need to filter the sparkplug B namespaces in order to gain connectivity to our EMQX broker but when I use the filtered namespace attribute in the server settings it seems to only filter out “spBv1.0/#” but leaves “spBv1.0/STATE/IamHost”. Is there a way to filter this namespace as well?

Thanks!

Update: I was able to get around this by creating a new set that didn’t enable “Primary Host”.

I feel dumb. I can’t for the life of me figure out how to mark a post as solved. Mind pointing me in the right direction?

The 3rd Party Modules category doesn't have the Solved plugin enabled.
