    {
        "tag": "update",
        "color": "#8C3FE2",
        "strikethrough": false,
        "underline": false,
        "backgroundColor": "transparent",
        "bold": false,
        "italic": false
    },
    // best color for check
    {
        "tag": "check",
        "color": "#00FF00",
        "strikethrough": false,
        "underline": false,
        "backgroundColor": "transparent",
        "bold": false,
        "italic": false
    },
