I want to replace tags on hundreds of images. They’re all tagged one thing and I want to replace that tag with a new tag.
I can search all images with that tag and batch-add the new tag, but I can’t seem to batch-remove them.
Seems like there was a 2019 thread asking about something similar: https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/removing-tags-in-mass/3535 (and the answer back then was “no”)
Sorry, the answer is still no, there is no built-in tool to do this. However, it would be possible to write a script to do this using the API.
Quick follow-up with additional information:
I confirmed that using the batch edit tagger only adds a tag. It cannot remove or replace tags. If you have existing tags on the observation, those will be retained.
