Hi;

I wrote a script in Webdev to write a value to a tag.

How can I put the tag into an acknowledged state and then at a later time get the acknowledge state especially since there is no eventID?

(below is the script)

def doGet(request, session):  
tag\_path = request[‘params’][‘tag\_path’]  
tag\_path = tag\_path.split("/")  
tag\_path = tag\_path[0] + “/ignore”  
system.tag.write(tag\_path, True)
