Issue type

[x] Documentation

Environment

  • Python version: 3.4.3
  • NetBox version: 2.4-dev

Description

I'm really looking forward to getting tags working but I'm not figuring out how to assign tags to items using the API. I am able to create tags fine but everything I've thought to try results in "name 'Tag' is not defined"

Fair enough, just wanted to make sure what I'm attempting should be possible because when I issue a PATCH against a host like:
URL: https://netboxhost.local/api/dcim/devices/5/
Body: {"tags": ["test-tag"]}

I get the error:

                                <class 'NameError'>
                                

name 'Tag' is not defined

Thanks for all you do!
