Hello @pturmel did the changes now can you help me with the solution

Thanks.

The OPC Server has an advanced "Exposed Tags" feature, that exposes all of the tag providers contents.

Note, projects do not have tags. The gateway as a whole has tags, and they all get exposed.

Hello @pturmel thanks for you help it helped me get all Tags created in gateway. One last question is there a way where we can configure which tags needs to be exposed.

If you need to expose only a limited set of variables, consider using a protocol server driver instead of OPC, such as my Advanced Modbus driver's Modbus Server, or my EtherNet/IP driver's Host device, which can serve as targets for external systems. (Using Modbus or Logix-style EtherNet/IP, respectively.)

I also recommend my Integration Toolkit's new Republish "Tag Actor" to push values from tags to such protocol server instances.
