Hi! Is there a way to grab the tag path from another component, and use that in an expression or indirect tag binding?

Not in any _supported_ way, no. But if you are willing to poke around in Ignition’s guts, you might find [this topic](http://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/how-to-expose-the-tag-path-of-a-component-binding/12480) useful.
