FlexSim to SCADA connection

Does anyone have any insights on whether it's possible to connect a FlexSim simulation to an external SCADA system?

Details:

- I would like to use Ignition SCADA (from Inductive Automation) to start the simulation and display outputs in a Graphical User Interface.

From the website we can see that Ignition is "built on" SQL, Python, MQTT and OPC UA (links to FlexSim pages for each).
