We use browseServer for something like this. > [@OPC Browse Tree](http://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/opc-browse-tree/12291): > > Hi everyone, Besides dragging items from the OPC Browser into the Tag Browser and then using the Tag Browse Tree component is there any other way to give a client the ability to browse OPC tags?
