Hello,

I have 2 gateways (backend, frontend) and I am using the GAN to send a tag provider (remote) from backend to frontend. The alarm metrics metadata appears on the backend, however, on the frontend, I can see tags only, not the Alarm Metrics (even though the option is checked in designer). Is there a setting i need to change to have this on my frontend gateway as well? Thanks.

I have the same issue, seems to be a problem on remote providers. Looks like you can still bind to those properties tho. just can’t see them in designer

This is probably just a glitch in remote tag providers. As @Craig_webber says, if you can still bind to them, they'll work just fine wherever you need to use them, you just can't browse them. Same as the default tag provider, you can't see the Alarm Metrics in the root, but it is there.
