Query regarding support of test_decoding and PGReplicationStream with Standby Logical Replication

Hi,

I have a question regarding the new feature introduced in PostgreSQL 16
that enables logical replication from a standby server.

Currently, we are using a standalone instance of PostgreSQL 16 and
performing logical replication by creating replication slots and utilizing
the JDBC replication stream API (PGReplicationStream) with the
test_decoding plugin.

Could you please confirm whether this approach of logical replication is
supported from a standby system? Specifically, does the standby system
support the test_decoding plugin and the JDBC PGReplicationStream API for
streaming changes ?

Reference to JDBC Logical replication -

Regards,
Kiran
