Is there a way to hide tags from users in the power chart component? I do not want the users to be able to see all the tags, some of it is for internal use only, and it seems confusing to the users to see them

I’m trying to do the same thing now. Did you find a way to do this?

if possible, an easy solution is to split internal and user tag in different folder in the tag browser, and set tagBrowserStartPath

As the database is part of this path, you can also use the same folder, but use a different database (history provider) for internal and user tag history

I had a similar issue in Vision, i ended up using a script that from time to time(because the client can create certain types of tags) updates a dataset with the tags and a few other things i want to expose for them and i use it on a tree view component
