I’m trying to decommission some equipment, I’ve deleted the associated tag in the tag browser but when I do a tag search the tag is still showing up in my “Tag Creator - [default]” under “For provider [default]” and I can’t delete it from that pop up screen either. Is there a way I can get rid of that tag entirely? Any help would be appreciated!

Can you find it in that relocation?

Have you refreshed the tag browser?

Which version are you using?

Got it, I needed to hit “refresh providers” button. Love the simple solutions.

Thanks Andrews!!
