Hello!  
In the script on the view, I am trying to get a list of alarms via system.alarm.queryStatus.  
Let's simplify the code to the following:

> anyProps = [("name", "=", "S6HighTemp")]  
> alarms = system.alarm.queryStatus(any\_properties = anyProps)

Everything was working fine before. But recently it stopped working with the following error:

> com.inductiveautomation.ignition.client.gateway\_interface.GatewayException: Error cloning object through serialization

What does this error mean?

Hello deforder,

What version of Ignition are you currently running? I tested your code snippet on 8.1.23 and it works/outputs just fine without any errors. Could you share a screenshot testing your snippet in Script Console?

Could you also post the full stacktrace of the error? Where did you get this error? From the GW logs or the Designer console? other
