Tag Metadata not coming through remote history provider

I'm configuring the Ignition-Canary module and am running into an issue with metadata fields. When I create a tag on my cloud gateway which has the Canary module installed and I set the history to Canary it successfully brings across its metadata for ranges, units, and description fields. However when I create a tag on my site gateway and point it to the remote history provider it does not bring across the metadata. I see the values logging with timestamps but no properties come across.

I can't find any config properties to enable this and I'm hoping this is not a limitation of using the gateway network / remote history provider?

Ignition 8.1.48

Edit: Reviewing the 8.3 docs they added a include meta data field in the history settings ... guessing that means I'm SOL and it wasn't part of it in 8.1?
