Description With ThingsBoard Edge Perpetual license we can have unlimited Devices, but how to actually utilize these Devices data to show on Edge dashboard without using the Cloud? For example, if we use ThingsBoard Cloud Maker which is using up to 30 Devices then Edge instance can no longer be configured from the Cloud. Thanks

Hello @akseerali,

If you're using ThingsBoard Edge with a Perpetual license and connecting it to ThingsBoard Cloud Maker, you should be aware that only the first 30 devices created on the Cloud can be managed there. Any additional devices can be managed only on the Edge.

To display all devices from the Edge on your dashboard, you could consider using an alias based on Device type. However, please note that with this setup, you'll only see the first 30 devices on the Cloud dashboard. On the Edge, though, you will have visibility over all the devices that are available there.
