Hi guys,  
I’m using Ignition 7.9.7 and I would like to know if there is a way to set tag’s roles in UDT instance via scripting?  
I tried to use this code (based on Ignition sdk examples) but it doesn’t seem to have any affect:

```auto
permissionsMap = HashMap()
zoneRole = TagPermissionsModel.ZoneRole();
zoneRole.setRole("ig_wizard");
zoneRole.setZone("");
permissionsMap.put(zoneRole, True);
print permissionsMap
permissions = BasicTagPermissions(permissionsMap)
	
path = "UDT_instance/tag"
prop = WellKnownTagProps.locate("PermissionModel")
print type(WellKnownTagProps.locate("PermissionModel"))
config = system.tag.browseConfiguration(path, False)[0]
config.set(prop, permissions)

```

Best regards.
