And once I have updated, have it also updated in eveery flow where it is used.

What I tried now, whn I use standard logic ot create a tag and set a value, if I change the name it simply creates a new tag and I have to change the corresponding flows where it is used as well.

Any ideas or suggestions?  
Thanks.

Kind regards,  
JP

For now you have to update a Tag name everywhere  
but if I remember correct that behavior will change in 2.0 where all all Tags will also get GUID’s and the display name can be renamed afterwards (Like with Devices now).

We will see it soon 😉

“Soon” does not imply any particular date, time, decade, century, or millennia in the past, present, and certainly not the future. “Soon” shall make no contract or warranty between Athom and the end user. “Soon” will arrive some day, Athom does guarantee that “soon” will be here before the end of time. Maybe. Do not make plans based on “soon” as Athom will not be liable for any misuse, use, or even casual glancing at “soon”.
