Martin,

Yes, both support you writing and uploading your own Python application. The X4 supports Python 2.4.3 where by the Industrial Gateway supports 2.7.

Hi, how can I upload and run an application in the gateway? Should the application be in .EXE format or can it also be in python format (python + xml project)?
Can I upload data from the application in to cloud, like this example (https://www.digi.com/resources/documentation/digidocs/PDFs/90002346.pdf) ?

Your Python Application would be in .py format.

Yes, your application can send data to the Digi Remote Manager or any other site you so choose. It is just a matter of how you write your Python application and where you open your socket to send the data with.
