Good Morning Team, I am currently working on an application where I have one Perspective project that I would like to deploy on two PCs, which I want to mirror one another. For example, I have a process where operators need to collect scrap at different points in the process, but they cannot see or interact with each other. However, I want them to work from one interface so that when User 1 adds a row, User 2 can see it, and when User 2 adds a row, User 1 can see it. I have tried to attach a diagram to explain. Please let me know if you need any clarification. ![Untitled Diagram.drawio](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/6/4/6402ed1998bc8b4b3eb3f0cbde6ed80d0016e58e.jpeg) Thanks, Ryan ---

I assume the row data has a database source? In that case you could use a combination of `system.util.sendMessage` and `system.perspective.sendMessage` to tell each session to update certain bindings when polling is off. Another way would be to have the source data held in a tag. Any session referencing that tag will have the same data. ---

When you say has a database source, What do you mean? ---

When someone creates a new row, is that inserting a record into a database table? It looks like you are using a flex repeater, where does the data for the flex repeater live, where does it come from. ---

Right, no its not going to a database. It goes to the tag path for that row (Examlpe Row 1 and Row 2 are active): ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/b/b/bb334ecdf5744e0f15b02b806082bc265953e0a8.png) ---

Are both projects referencing the same tag provider? If not, can they? ---

Why tags specific to the rows and not just a dataset directly? I feel like this is making things more complicated. ---

Is this on Ignition Edge or Ignition Standard? If Edge, using a database is out of the question.
