Hi, I have a report in a parent project that inherits out to several child projects.

Each report has a default tag provider that is different. I am trying to pass a parameter through called “Provider” where I can reference that tag provider in the report. I usually use the format {tagname} to reference a tag on a default provider, but it doesn’t seem to be working here. I’ve also tried [~]tagname

The tag shown below is a string that contains the default provider name. It is on the root of every tag provider.
