Integrating API

At my company we have an API that we used for OPC DA servers that would covert tags to our data structure and vice versa. With the OPC DA server they were able to add variables, for each tag, that would later be used in the API. I was wondering if there is way to do that with nodes in OPC UA .NET SDK.

Hi,

in OPC UA the idea is to have the structures right away without converting via "proprietary" API. The idea of OPC UA is to overcome the datatype limitations OPC DA was suffering from. In contrast to OPC DA the OPC UA has a set of Node management services to create and delete nodes in the Address space. With that you could implement a configuration/modification of your server's address space at runtime.
