I would like to add the length of all my beams to beam tag.

However, when i try to add it when editing the label for the tag, there is no Length option available?

However on all my beams, under the dimensions section the length is shown! Thanks for any help!

There are only a few special tags that read project values.  For instance, room tags will read area and volume, ceiling tags will report height but for the most part, you can not create tags to read project values.

you may be able to do a shared Reporting parameter, add that to the beam that reports the beam length,

then add the parameter into the beam tag.
