I created a tags, folders and etc on Ignition designer, I want a 3rd party OPCUA client to view these tags on the Ignition OPCUA Server.

![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/6/9/69585b2ac151d197d697375cf84eb4b9a2d5d45c.png)

Is this possible?  
I think I've done this before, but I don't remember the settings I need to set in order for these tags to be expose. Any help will be much appreciate.

Thanks!

Regards,

Hi Dnice,

I already set the Tag Provider: True

![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/d/9/d9812a2e297463976ef1d59cfe70cb327f936830.png)

As per manual, I think this one is I need to set, but seems like not working, I still don't see my Tags configured on my designer.

Nevermind, I just need to restart the UA Server module to take effect.
