Searching for script executing

Ignition

I have a script running somewhere that is inserting information into a database, I cannot find where the script is located. Iv checked every component in the browser. Is there a way to check what is firing.

Ignition v8.1 has a "Running Scripts" page in the status section. I don't think it existed in v7.9. You will need to get a thread dump and carefully study it. (Non-trivial, sorry.) If you can't figure it out, post the complete thread dump here as an attachment.

There's a possibility that the script is very quick-running, so you may not catch it on a single thread dump.

Could this be it

And, it may not be happening in the project you have open. If there are other projects on the gateway, you may want to take a look through those, too.

only one project on the gateway.

That is a built in task that monitors your python external libraries for changes. So, no.

You could disable the database connection and see what breaks / errors :upside_down_face:

on that note, its the only thing inserting into that table, could remove that table. Then add another with the same name later. There isn't any critical information in it.
