You can use the MQTT Publish extension to send archive data too, eg
[[topics]]
[[[loop]]]
binding = loop
[[[[fields]]]]
[[[[[dateTime]]]]]
ignore = false
append_unit_label = false
conversion_type = integer
[[[archive]]]
binding = archive
[[[[fields]]]]
[[[[[dateTime]]]]]
ignore = false
append_unit_label = false
conversion_type = integer
