I have several projects on an Ignition Cloud server. Each has their own tag provider which references a different MQTT node, but all of the UDT definitions and tag structures are identical. We have a “Master Tags” provider where we keep the UDT definitions and we’re using it as a repository. When we update a UDT, we just copy JSON the definitions and go to each individual project’s provider to paste. As we get more projects on the server, updates are going to get more and more tedious. Is there a way for a tag to get its parent data type from a different tag provider? If you could do that, then there’s only one place we’d need to keep the definitions, and we could use different folders for version control on the tags. Is that possible?
Don’t think that this is possible, I would look for a way to automate UDT replication. I would make a script that, every now and then, would get the UDT configuration, and write it to a tag with Document Type. When this tag change, all provider update their own UDT definition
