A user asked about modifying fields in ControlUp at the database level, specifically mentioning the "Description" field. Another user suggested using the Tags column, which is available through a post-VM boot script. The possibility of using a logon script based on user details and connection was also mentioned. The URL for adding the Tags column is provided: https://support.controlup.com/docs/add-tags-column-to-information-grid

Are there any other ControlUp fields that can be modified at the DB level, similar to "Description"? we are using this field to set some custom parameters, but wondered if there were any other fields. Tags will not work in this case since the fields I want to set are on non-persistent VMs
