Adding, Replacing, and Deleting Tags
 
You can add, replace, and delete tags from a segment at any time. Note that you can only add one tag of the same type to a segment at a given time; adding a second tag of the same type replaces the original tag. When you work with segments of a strata group, you can add a tag of the same type for each stratum pooled in the group. For example, if your strata groups contains three strata which all have a “date” property, you can have three tags of type “date.”
