Hi All,

Does anybody know if it’s possible to access SQL Bridge functionality through the SDK?

I’d like to:

- Create new Historical Groups
- Configure the historical group
- Add tags to the historical group
- Enable/disable the historical group

Cheers!

No documented support. You might be able to glean enough from reflection to figure it out, but note that a group is stored as a binary resource. Pretty opaque.

No really, actually at least what I think, the only way to interact with SQL Bridge is throw Transaction Groups in Designer. But Transaction Groups does interact with tags, maybe that’s the way at least to enable or disable a historical group by a trigger action. Maybe for your other desires, you may want to use a Store Procedure Instead and use your SQL service like your “SDK” somehow.
