Deleting a tag

A tag can be deleted from your collection by sending a DELETE request to its API URL: https://api.rebrandly.com/v1/tags/:id, where :id is the unique identifier of the tag.
The action is not reversible and will permanently delete your tag, detaching it from all links you have attached it to.
