Re: Manufacturing Apps reading data from MQTT

Hi @SebB ,

Per this topic:

We're currently using KepServerEX for the MQTT connection. 

In Kepware we have data tag in which one string item is in the format as shown below.

{
 "customer": "ABC",
 "site": "ABC",
 "department": "ABC",
 "assettype": "A",
 "asset": "A01",
 "description": "Make or Model",
 "tags": [
 
 {
 "component": "PLC",
 "tag": "MachineOn",
 "value": 1,
 "unit": "1/0-Running/Stopped"
 },
 {
 "component": "PLC",
 "tag": "Length",
 "value": 11.99,
 "unit": "km"
 },
 {
 "component": "PLC",
 "tag": "Temperature",
 "value": 45,
 "unit": "C"
 }
 
 ]
}

Since its in this json format i'm unable to use the OOTB Configuration App to directly map Machine status and other properties to the Asset. I've written a Subscription service to parse and map the corresponding properties.

Is there any better workaround for this. Can this heavy lifting part done at kepware side itself.

Regards,
