Exporting Tags
About this task
The Export Tags function permits you to send tag information from the Historian Server to an Excel worksheet or to another system, which may be either local or remote.
Note: Before importing or exporting tags, data, or messages, you should be aware of a convention used with the Historian application. The Server is the reference point for all import and export functions, as illustrated in the following figure. If you want to move tag information from the Server into your worksheet, you must use the Export Tags command. Conversely, if you want to move data from your worksheet to the server, you must use the Import Data command.
It is recommended that you first export a tag and then import it, to become familiar with the procedure and what the data looks like.
