Update Tag is a Step (action) in Tags. Updates an existing tag's title and publishing fields.
Update Tag is a Step (action) in Tags. Updates an existing tag's title and publishing fields.
When the flow reaches this step, JOrchestrator executes Update Tag against your linked site or an external integration, using the field values you set on General and Design. Downstream steps can read the output payload fields defined for this node.
Update Tag is a action step in the Tags group. Action steps run in the middle or end of a flow. They perform work on your CMS, call external services, or transform data for the next step.
Typical reasons teams add Update Tag to a flow:
Common patterns on the canvas:
Pick the tag from Joomla on Design — not a raw id text field.
Changing title does not automatically retag articles — use article nodes for associations.
The designer shows these tabs for this node:
| Tab | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Info | Plain-language description and output payload fields for downstream steps |
| General | Canvas label and read-only node ID |
| AI | Optional assistant to help draft settings from plain language |
| Design | Node-specific configuration fields |
These fields are managed by the designer or runtime — you do not type into them directly:
| Property key | Label | Type | Required | Visible when | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
_nodeId | Node ID | node-id | No | — | — |
_payloadFields | Available Fields | payload-panel | No | — | — |
| Property key | Label | Type | Required | Visible when | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
label | Label | text | No | — | Node label |
| Property key | Label | Type | Required | Visible when | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
value | Title | payload-text | No | — | Tag title or drag payload field |
published | Published | select (0 | 1 | 2 | -2; default: 1) | No | — | — |
| Property key | Label | Type | Required | Visible when | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
id | Tag to update | tag-select | Yes | — | Select tag |
language | Language | content-language-select | No | — | Select language (* = all) |
Credentials, API keys, mailers, SMTP, and integration defaults are configured in the CMS plugin under Node Configuration, not per step on this node. Link the flow to a domain before testing CMS-backed fields.
After this step runs, later nodes can reference these fields using placeholders such as {{update_tag.id}}.
| Field key | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
id | string | Primary record identifier. |
title | string | Title text for the created or updated record. |
alias | string | URL-safe alias / slug. |
