Like suggested in [this post](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/acknowledging-alarms-based-on-window-content/27594/2), you can try using `queryStatus` and filter to get just the specific tag. That will give you a list of alarm events that you can iterate using a script like [here](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/ack-all-from-external-button/6680/5) and get the IDs.

Your `queryStatus` call would probably look something like

```auto
alarms = system.alarm.queryStatus(status=["ActiveUnacked"], path=[my_tag_path])

```

where I'm assuming you have your tag path as a binding on the popup already.

EDIT: Like mentioned by @bschroeder, `queryStatus` is pretty intensive so you don't want to call it directly, use a message handler or `invokeAsynchronous`
