Tag devices

 

Update the tags registered for a set of devices running an application.

Devices can be identified by their regular device identifier or by a custom user identifier. The custom user identifier is simply a special reserved tag, which key is userid. To set this special tag, use this command or use the SDK’s sendAppInfo function.

System_CAPS_noteNote

Updates are performed asynchronously.
This means that a few seconds are needed before the modifications appear in the results of the Get device command.

Tag by device IDs or user IDs.
