retagging
Assigning new labels
Retagging is the act of assigning new tags or labels to something, or replacing existing ones.
In digital contexts, this typically involves updating metadata on files, photos, blog posts, or database entries to improve organization or searchability: I spent the afternoon retagging my music library by genre.
The term also applies to physical inventory management, where items receive new price tags or identification labels.
