    Saving Tags Using the API

    Hi,

    I have a CSV string of values that I want to save into a tags datatype property.

    I thought I could do this by simply assigning the CSV to the property of the item I'm working with (in my case a Media item) like this:

    string tags = "robert,dougan,developer";
    mediaItem.getProperty("tags").Value = tags;

    However this doesn't work. Does anyone know how to do this?

    Thanks,

    Robert

    Hi Robert,

    It sounds like the CSV values aren't registered as 'tags' in the database.

    See my answer on this other post: http://our.umbraco.org/forum/developers/api-questions/14273-Adding-Data-To-Tags-DataType?p=0#comment52646

    Cheers, Lee.

    Ah great, thanks Lee, this looks like the problem.
