Serhii

Untick the “is Historical” and “Is Alerted” and search again, they should show up.

I have only one Tag Provider.

I tried different options like “alerted” and “historical”. Same result.

Export out the tag database to CSV and search that way?

Do you have any User Data Types that you’ve created that are using that Scan Class as a default? Maybe they’re not showing up because they’re inheriting the scan class.
