Device Tags
Tags on device level are meant to group devices inside an organisation. Use cases can can be external ID's, Installation location, data export targets, etc.
Some future plans are to filter by tag in integrations, display tags in the device table and use them for search, grouping, etc.
Currently the most important difference to device properties (where you can also story lists) is, that the parser has no write access to tags.
Also a device with too many tags might get less handy, where device properties can be added as needed.
