Originally created by @bitshiftnetau on GitHub (Jan 8, 2022).

NetBox version

v3.1.2

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

The user should be able to dynamically add tags when none are found. For example, when adding a device.

Use case

When I am creating devices and don't wish to abandon the work already done to fill out the form, just to backtrack and create a simple tag of all things. Or to save and come back, it's a waste of time and risks tasks being left half-completed should something more urgent arise.

Database changes

No response

External dependencies

We used to allow this until #3703. This was changed in 2.9.0, with good reason.

This isn't something we are going to add-back. For adding tags, almost all fields within a specific model that access a related model are dynamic. You can go to tags in a new window, add a tag and then search for it in the add/edit window you had open.

Yeh that's fair. Junk tags and unauthorized additions are an organizational nightmare.
