I have a project where I am trying to make custom charts for groups of tags. When I use the PowerChart component, it retrieves all the historical data for the tags for whatever length I request. However, when I try to add a historical query to a TimeSeries Chart, the data only goes back a couple of days?

Is there a limitation to the other components on the length of time they can display historical tags?

Length of time would be something that would be configured in the historical query binding. Show your binding configuration or an example binding. Namely the `Start Date` and `End Date` fields in the binding configuration.

I answered my own question after looking into the issue. It has to do with the expression that I was using for the custom property. You can’t just pass in the tag path, you need to add “[TagHistory/ignition-]” to the tag path being passed.
