What would be the equivalent data type in ignition for a SINT coming from a plc?
Thinking it would be a Short?
It's Byte. Anything larger should work too, though.

Related to this, is there an easy way to get a single tag for a SINT array?
Here is the tag I want to create in ignition.
If I did a Byte Array data type for this what would be the OPC Item Path?
I cant figure out how to get every SINT of the array into the same tag without creating a single tag for each SINT within the array
No, you need a tag for each. The driver exposes arrays as folders full of tags.
Or switch to my driver. It supports array tags for all basic numeric types.
And they are writeable (as a whole), too.
