Hello, good morning. It is possible read a second OPC-UA server from Ignition OPC-UA server without use of tag provider? Read directly Second OPC-UA through Igntion OPC-UA server, without create tags in a tag provider. ![imagen](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/c/5/c57f227325bdb375a303f81ae1b853ffdf633e24.png) View this: ![imagen](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/1/6/16bc4b3d2b59c94aea12f64628a9834ce0fda363.png) In this: ![imagen](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/5/b/5beb442ba3ed4dac436f5d6e348178c28e7b0299.png) I'm waiting for your answer.

No, you'll need to make another connection in UaExpert to that 2nd OPC server. ---
