Attempting to use the system.tag.move function to rename a folder. Is this possible? On the ignition 8 documentation, it says using this function and pointing the source path and destination path to the same node will change the name, however, I am experiencing it creating the source path as a child in the destination path.

For example,

I am moving ‘[default]folder1’ to ‘[default]folder2’ which should change the name. Instead, I am creating ‘[default]folder2/folder1/’

Edit1: I’ve also attempted to use system.tag.getConfiguration and system.tag.configure to edit the folder name with no luck. Anyone have any suggestions?
