What is a Project?

An Ignition project is a unit of configuration that consists of:

Windows
Transaction Groups
General Settings
Security Settings

 

Each runtime client or designer can operate on one project at a time. If a project contains viewable elements (windows, reports) a launch link for it will appear on the gateway homepage. Otherwise, the project will run in the gateway and will not have a client runtime.

 

There is no limit to the number of projects that can be created on a gateway.

What is not part of the project?

SQLTags providers, database connections, OPC server connections, OPC-UA module device configurations, alarm notification pipelines are all not contained in a project. These settings are shared by all projects on the system.
