Since UI added tags now get overwritten by ingest, I'm wondering if it's better to add back the tags field in dataproperties class or to write a improved transformer class that queries Datahub for existing tags and inserts it into the globaltag class before ingestion. Personally I liked the old dataproperties tag field - it introduces tags that cannot be removed from the UI. Edit: this is probably applicable to ownership as well.

@better-orange-49102: are you referring to something similar to patching ownership? https://datahubproject.io/docs/metadata-ingestion/transformers#advanced-use-case-patching-owners

thanks for the reference, was looking at the tag transformer code wondering where to add in the hack to query the api
