(Ignition 7.9.9/7.9.10)  
I use the **Deprecated** configureTag(java.lang.String path, DataType dType, ExtendedTagType tagType) method of the SimpleProviderInterface and I try to replace it with **configureTag(TagConfiguration config)**.  
Moreover I would like to set the **documentation** field of the tags.

I’m looking for an example to use TagConfiguration::fromJSON to specify the tag data type and the documentation…
