You can connect the SIMATIC S7 Connector to Databus to publish the data. The Databus allows you to create a user and topics to this user. You must create topics for alarms and tags data to the user in the Databus. The topic name must be as follows:

• ie/m/j/simatic/v1/s7c1/dp for tags metadata
  where ie: industrial edge, m: metadata, j: json, s7c1: SIMATIC S7 Connector instance 1, dp: data point.
• ie/d/j/simatic/v1/s7c1/dp/r/# for tags data
  where ie: industrial edge, d: data, j: json, s7c1: SIMATIC S7 Connector instance 1, dp: data point
• ie/m/j/simatic/v1/s7c1/ev for alarms metadata
  where ie: industrial edge, m: metadata, j: json, s7c1: SIMATIC S7 Connector instance 1, ev: event.
• ie/d/j/simatic/v1/s7c1/ev/# for alarms data
  where ie: industrial edge, d: data, j: json, s7c1: SIMATIC S7 Connector instance 1, dp: data point
• ie/s/j/simatic/v1/s7c1/status for Connector and Connector diagnostic status where ie: industrial edge, s: status, j: json, s7c1: SIMATIC S7 Connector instance 1
