Hi everyone. In the Ignition I have a “Power Table” that is filled by a script. ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/2X/1/1826d091c2de18e59cb117310204c02d1ac0fb2b.png) The script read the Tags inside a folder and in the first column insert the tagpath (one tagpath by row). Now I need to insert the values in the other columns for each tagpath, but I don’t want to binding the values manually (cell binding) and I need a dynamic update (auto-update). ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/2X/d/dfdc668db358023d6de8a793aa2157519be4f8f9.png) I can create a script that read a tag and insert the value in the table, but I don’t like this method. Can I binding the values as I bind an indicator (for exemple LED Indicator) to an UDT? And this UDT use the tagpath to pick up the values? ---

If you don’t mind me asking, could you provide that script for me? I posted a thread a couple of days ago similar to this, and this sounds exactly like what I need, although I feel as there is another way to do this as well. ---

Hi, Searching for the solution as well. A table to follow the evolution of some selected tags in client would be nice for sure (I only have the selected one currently with a simple label on the selected row). @lautry I did it using system.tag.browseTags and system.dataset.addRow. ---

Just had an idea that seems to work for me: I use a custom methods taking the tag path and filling the other cells with the value I need (the method return a new dataset at the end). I call this methods from an expression bind on the data of the table with a pollRate of 1s. ---

Hello @Myllka, @cedric, can you tell my how did you solve this? I’m working on the same thing. Thanks! ---

Hi, a solution could be to use a template repeater ---

Yes, is a good one, but I need to apply this to a big amount of tags. So I think it’s gonna look better in a table. Thanks! ---

From what I can tell, the script he’s using creates the table dataset from scratch and then he simply binds this dataset to the table data property. e.g. the script will create a dataset with the same field columns as in the dataset in his screenshot: tagPath | Select | Board | Channel | Group | etc… Calling it every 1s will then update the values. I presume that the script is within a library and that it’s called using the expression function: runScript(…) My question is: does sorting and filtering still work? Or is this reset each time the table contents are updated?
