hi everyone, i am currently busy with a project where i read data from a PLC with node. but the problem is i have to be able to access the node red dashboard over the internet(which i decided against), instead i tried using mqtt output to send to thingsboard(exactly what i wanted) but i am not seeing annything in the latest telemetry section of TB. Has anyone done this before or have alternative solutions?
