Hello,

I am trying to pull tags/data from a database but "SQL Tag" isn't an option in the tag browser. Is this an add-on that I have to purchase? The module is installed and I'm connected to the database. It actually says "Valid" for status. I'm running Ignition 8 Standard and the version running for SQL Bridge is 10.1.19.

The Tag Historian module provides SQL Tag history. The SQL Bridge module provides classic support for Wide-style (row-based) recordings.
