Hello all,  
I’m trying configure igntion with rabbitmq instead Chariot.  
For Chariot server everything is working great, unfortunatelly when I use Rabbit server, tag in ingnition designer is not refreshed  
In MQTT.fx I see that communication using rabbit mq is working.  
Status of connection in Mqqt transmission settings page for ignition edge and mqqt engine settings for Ignition server is connected.  
Below print screen which shows more detailed what I have configured so far.

I use EMQx instead of Mosquitto or Chariot, but if I recall correctly with RabbitMQ, it's not natively an MQTT broker, and the topic format uses periods instead of slashes. Because of this, I think there were issues with Sparkplug because the base topic is "spBv1.0". It's been a long time since I tried RabbitMQ, so I don't recall if there was a workaround for it or not.

Edit: Looks like there's a special flag you can set to make it Sparkplug compatible, but it only applies to the spBv1.0 topic. Any other topic with a period would break it.
