Hi, I am trying to make a call to the Ignition API (WebDev Module).

Here are the steps I’m trying to get my tag from Ignition.

WebDev runs in the gateway. It has no connection to any user interface. Move the UI data you wish to serve into a tag or other gateway-reachable resource.

So one thing is that definitely will not work is that you are trying to call `event.source.parent.getComponent("Table")`, but if you look at the parameters you get from `doGet(rquest, session)` you’ll notice that event is not one of them, so you cannot reference something like this. An event is something that happens in a vision client. You probably want  
[system.tag.browse - Ignition User Manual 8.0 - Ignition Documentation](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC80/system.tag.browse) instead.
