How can I select the TAGs that I want to appear in the report using options? Some person has some example of how it is done? I could create many reports but I want to enable and disable TAG ![Consulta](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/9/6/96ce73f72751d16aab1843f220cd2219d73eea7d.jpeg) I want to do something simpler, not create all possible report combination options ---

I assume you are using a tag history query for your reports? If so you can use parameters in your tag paths, but i don’t think that is going to work very well for you, if you dont have a fixed number of tags you will report on. You could use a SQL or Named query and add a your selected tag names to the where clause, but that will get more complicated if you have partitioning enabled on your historian, which you probably do. ---

This isnt a very elegant solution, but it works. The report data source, with the parameters for 3 tag paths: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/9/8/980d778c9f04d76c317f73af6a799c5effbb2ff9.png) The perspective view with drop downs for the 3 tag path parameters. I have the full path in the value property but just the tag name for the label. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/a/c/ac6eb4fd6841bc70990cc21fcd11b4ef0f06d19e.png) Hopefully this helps, or at least gets you started. ---

Do you have any more information? What code do you insert into the component? I don’t have much experience so I ask a little more details. If you have any project that you can send me so I can open it and see how it is made . [patricio.rojas.bolomey@gmail.com](mailto:patricio.rojas.bolomey@gmail.com) ---

I have shown you pretty much everything except my drop down config. I have this setup in a project i can’t share, but if you need more help i can create a new one. Also you can do the same thing with the radio buttons in your screen shot, just set custom properties to the tag paths desired based on the selection. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/3/8/38f33e53d44b2f244f4e29b21d320da45c8a7aac.png) ---
