    Allow session persistence to support true QoS 2 data collection and backfill of events after a data source disconnection

    It appears that regarding Session Persistence (persistent vs clean session), the Adapter hardcodes setting the Clean Session Flag for the generic data source (Sparkplug doesn’t QoS 2 nor session persistence) to true. This should be a user-defined ...

    Support named ranges to avoid issue KB01369
