How to Dynamically Bind Tags from a Folder to a Flex Repeater in Ignition Perspective?

Use system.tag.browse to get all the tag paths from the folder, and pass each tag path as a parameter per instance in the flex repeater.

Build your embedded view (the one that the flex repeater will use) to accept a tag path as a parameter and use that to indirectly bind to the tag.

The instances property of the flex repeater expects a list of dictionaries.
dictList = [{x: 1, Y: index} for index in xrange(10)] is the basic list comprehension for making a list of dictionaries.

Edit: Found this post which is accomplishing a similar task of looking through a folder of tags and adding instances to a flex repeater. Should help to point you in the right direction:
