# Tag albums
Tells Home Assistant which album to play when an RFID card (a **Tag**) is scanned, and provides a web page to give new cards an album (an **Assignment**). See [CONTEXT.md](CONTEXT.md) for the vocabulary.
Tells Home Assistant which album to play when a vinyl record's RFID sticker (a **Tag**) is scanned, and provides a web page to give newly tagged records an album (an **Assignment**). See [CONTEXT.md](CONTEXT.md) for the vocabulary.
How it fits together:
1. The ESPHome RFID reader sends `tag_scanned` to Home Assistant, as before.
2. HA's `Play album by tag` script calls `POST /api/scans`. The service records the **Scan** and answers with the album, or `assigned: false`.
3. A card the service hasn't seen before becomes an **Unassigned tag**. It appears on the web page within a few seconds, where you search the Music Assistant library and assign an album.
4. When a card is removed, HA's `Stop album by tag` script calls `GET /api/tags/{tag_id}`. It stops the player only if that tag has an album.

## Demo
A card is scanned while the page is open, shows up under Unassigned tags, and gets an album from a live search of the Music Assistant library:
