Home / Community Free tools

We share some of our Ignition work with the community for free.

The Exchange resources, videos and modules on this page are free to download and use. Many engineers know our work from them before they first contact us.

Ignition Exchange

We have won the Exchange Challenge twice, and took second place in 2026.

The Ignition Exchange is where Ignition users share resources that anyone can download into a project. Inductive Automation runs a challenge for new submissions. Below are our two winning entries and two other resources we have published there.
