Hello,

I want to configure my history tag settings with the TimeSeriesChart c

the goal is to set the parameter without needing to go to the Edit binding of TimeSeriesChart as shown in the attached image.

You’ll need to use an `expression structure` binding instead of `tag history`, use your dropdown values as input, and call `system.tag.queryHistory`.

Something like that (that’s an actual chart in one of my projects, so you’ll need to change things to match your own use case):

My path tag is like this : ‘[Formation]Moteur 1/Amps’

I try it but don’t work

def transform(self, value, quality, timestamp):  
“”"  
Transform the incoming value and return a result.

```
Arguments:
	self: A reference to the component this binding is configured on.
	value: The incoming value from the binding or the previous transform.
	quality: The quality code of the incoming value.
	timestamp: The timestamp of the incoming value as a java.util.Date
"""
endTime = system.date.now()
startTime = system.date.addMinutes(endTime, -30)
dataSet =system.dataset.toPyDataset(system.tag.queryTagHistory(paths=['[Formation]Moteur 1/Amps'], startDate=startTime, endDate=endTime, returnSize=1, aggregationMode="Maximum", returnFormat='Wide'))
return dataset
```

Your return is `dataset`, while your actual variable name is `dataSet`.

When pasting code, please enclose it in triple backquotes (`), you can even add the language after the first quotes, like so:

> ```python  
> code  
> ```

And please posts the errors you get when something doesn't work. It's hard to troubleshoot if we don't know what the trouble is...
