Hi everyone,

I'm attempting to copy the history from one tag to another.

It's complaining that "No values provided" but I have checked the data is in the array.

Here is the code I am using:

```auto
sourcePath='[MQTT Engine]Edge Nodes/XNEELO 002/seneca/C8F9810F26XX/avi/abalone/zgprs3001/custom/FLOW_1_FB'
destPath='[default]Edge Nodes/projects/avi/abalone/zgprs3005/custom/FLOW_1_FB'

endTime = system.date.now()
startTime = system.date.addWeeks(endTime, -1)

dataSet = system.tag.queryTagHistory(paths=[sourcePath], startDate=startTime, endDate=endTime, returnFormat='Wide')
converted=system.dataset.toPyDataSet(dataSet)

dst=[destPath]*len(converted)
datetimes=[x[0] for x in converted]
Values=[x[1] for x in converted]
Quality=[192]*len(converted)

print [x[1] for x in converted[:10]]
system.tag.storeTagHistory(
	historyprovider='seneca', 
	tagprovider='default', 
    path=[destPath]*len(converted),
	values=Values,
	qualities=[192]*len(converted),
	timestamps=[x[0] for x in converted])

```

Here is the error I get:

```auto
Traceback (most recent call last):

```

What mistake am I making?

Try logging `len(converted)`.

Hmm. That one argument is the only list that isn't an inline list comprehension. Try substituting?

Also, consider not using keyword parameters. The docs don't say this function supports them.

You were correct, it doesn't accept keyword parameters.
