Hello,

if you can update and add aspects I don't understand why you can't find something to update the description or tag. Any child of the bpm_package is a script node and has the API documented in the <a href="https://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/4.0_JavaScript_API#ScriptNode_API">wiki</a>. So to update a description you would use

var child = bpm_package.children[0];
child.properties["cm:description"] = "New Description";
child.save();‍‍‍

and for updateing tags

var child = bpm_package.childre[0];
child.setTags(["Tag 1", "Tag 2"]);‍‍

Regards
Axel
