If a designer makes any change to the client tags, it acquires a lock on the fmpi/client\_tags resource. This lock is never released. To allow another designer to edit client tags the original designer must be completely shut down.

We have tried closing the SQLTags browser, “Refresh Providers”, “Update Project”, and saving multiple times but still cannot find any way to release the lock.

The lock should be released as soon as the change has been successfully made.

What version of Ignition are you running? This sounds like an issue that was fixed in 7.5.2.

We’re currently using 7.5.2 (b1146).  
I have the same issue on 7.5.3 (b1163).

This appears to be a bug and I've been able to reproduce this here. I'll put in a ticket to get this fixed.
