Hello All, With the same name conflict for OPC UA device connection and tag provider. Hence not able to access the tag provider in external OPC UA client. ---

Ignition’s tag system is, by default, a _consumer_ of OPC tags, not a _producer_. ~~There is a setting in the OPC Server to expose tags through OPC, which is an all-or-nothing option. Did you set that?~~ Did you create tags in the new providers? ---

There was a bug fixed recently that involved a tag provider and device of the same name over exposed tags… what version are you using? ---

It was fixed in 8.1.13: > Fixed a bug that prevented a remote tag provider with the same name as a locally defined device from being accessible. Though reading that now I’m not certain is is the same issue, but you should probably upgrade anyway and find out. ---
