Hi @peterbbeu, thanks for reporting this issue. Unfortunately, this is a limitation of the Atlas API. As a follow-up I have reported your feedback to the Atlas API team. At this moment, you would need to unpause your cluster first to be able to set tags.

Alright, thank you @blva -- can I track the progress on that anywhere by any chance?

Hi @peterbbeu , I have opened a ticket internally, so I'm afraid you'd not be able to, but another avenue is to report this in https://feedback.mongodb.com/ so that more users could upvote your request. Meanwhile if I get any updates, I'll update this issue.
