I am having trouble figuring out how to get a list of the values populating the drop down Tag Provider Selector using Python within the Gateway Script Console.

So for example going off of the image above, I would want a python list containing [‘Sample\_Tags’, ‘System’, ‘Vision Client Tags’, ‘default’]

Thanks!
