Does Qlik Sense support OPC-UA or MQTT Data Sources / Protocols to read data from Edge devices / Machines (IIoT)?

I couldn't find them in the Data Sources section.

FYI:

OPC UA (Open Platform Communications Unified Architecture) is a cross-platform, open-source standard for secure and reliable industrial data exchange between devices, systems, and cloud applications. 

MQTT is a lightweight, publish-subscribe messaging protocol designed for machine-to-machine (M2M) and Internet of Things (IoT) applications.

No — Qlik Sense does not natively support OPC-UA or MQTT as data sources.

Since Qlik cannot directly talk to machines, a middleware layer is required.

Edge Device (OPC-UA / MQTT)

IIoT Gateway / Broker (e.g., HiveMQ, EMQX, Kepware, Ignition)

Database / Data Lake / REST API

Qlik Sense reads this data

Thank you Chanty4u, I thought so and that is why I currently use REST API.
