Hello, I started working with ignition about a month and a half ago. I'm trying to find out how a existing script is working. I'm working with a project where I don't want to make any changes as saving anything in the script directly affects the production environment. I was wondering what the bes…

Sounds like you need to stand up a development environment (isolated) and dump the gateway backup into it. You are otherwise playing with fire. (You can run a dev environment two hours at a time, indefinitely, without a license. There's no excuse for experimenting in production.) Do make sure th…

This is what I'm worried about: if I dump the gateway backup and export the project from designer into another instance, I won't have access to the data for the script anyway. No mock data has been created for this at all, so I still won't have access to any data to investigate how a script works. T…

A proper dev environment has access to replicated databases

I will try this until the script console works, I see now that the value property in the transform binding is referencing this 'data' prop that has an array. I do want to try creating a proper dev environment.

[image] Basel_Hassan: This specific script references arguments passed into the transform function and runs system.db.runNamedQuery. Then follow the bindings until you get something that you can feed into a script console replication of the transform script

I'm not sure how to start that process. It is something I will look into, thanks for pointing that out.

So I'm waiting for approval to duplicate our databases. In the meantime, is it realistic to create a backup gateway, upload it to ignition maker edition, automatically have all the same opc ua and plc connections, and connect it to the current database, but only have read access for the database, t…

I suggest you read carefully the EULA of ignition maker. "Ignition Maker Edition is a free-license edition that can be strictly used for non-commercial and personal educational use."
