Delete Tags

There are key differences between deleting and permanently deleting a tag.


Delete	Permanently Delete
The tag is removed from the tag database but any data for that tag is retained in the archive	All data associated with the tag is completely lost and the tag name is available for reuse.
Tag data is still available from the archive, so you can still reference that tag, for example, from within a calculation formula or by using the Excel Add-In.	Tag data is no longer available from the archives and you will not be able to query the existing data for that tag.
