Is there a way to make the tag paths for a tag change script dynamic? It would be nice to be able to handle these dynamically so if a new tag is added. It's easy to add a tag in Ignition, but harder to remember to add that tag to the tag change script... Currently running 8.1.24. Thanks in advance for the feedback!

The only dynamic option at this time is to use a wildcard in the last element of the tag path.

Well, apparently I missed that in the manual. That helps immensely. Thank you, pturmel!
