Edge Storage Provider Doesn't Parameterize


I have 30+ ignition gateways set up with the tag storage provider set up with a parameter called "{HistoricalDBName}". After a call with ignition they've told me parameters don't work on edge gateway tags because there's no need as there is only ever one storage provider. The problem is I have like 1000 tags that are historized and I can't be manually going to each one to change it. Is there a faster way as putting "Edge Historian" doesn't work for a parameter.

Hi Radiophonique,

I am not really seeing an easy option with this. One option that may work would be to simply export your tags as a JSON file, and use CTRL+F to change the storage provider for your tags manually.

Are your tags organized in folders that would separate them by storage provider? If so, you could possibly try using system.tag.configure to change the configuration of the tags in each of those folders. I would take a look at the "Edit Multiple Tags" section of this document if that's the route you want to try:

I hope this helps!
