Hello,

Thank you for your project.
Would it be possible to add a feature to manage tags directly (add/delete/modify) from the user interface?
This would allow our developers to manage the tags themselves.

Thank you,

Hi @j4rj4r. You can already edit and delete tags in the UI: "Existing tags can also be renamed or deleted globally in the web UI (clicking on Tags -> Edit tags in the side navigation). Please note that renaming an existing tag will not prevent a tag with the original name from being created again via auto-tagging of new messages."

The limitations are:

You cannot add tags via this method because tags cannot exist without assigned messages. New tags need to be added directly to the messages ("Individual message tags can be edited inline when viewing a message in the web UI.")
Renaming or deleting a tag will not prevent the original tag name from being recreated if your tags are automatically created via the other methods mentioned in the same article I linked to (plus addressing, X-Tags header, tag filters).
