Hello,
Today, I synced my anking deck and all my protected tags disappeared. I use these tags to make filtered decks to study for specific shelf exams. Is there a way to fix this? Thank you.

Hello,
In order to restore something like this that has been lost it will likely be necessary to restore from a backup. A basic tutorial can be found here: How to Restore From Backup
Let me know if you have any questions or if I can be of help in any way. 
That helps, thank you!
Make sure to protect these tags so it does not occur again, you can follow this document: 🔐 Protecting Fields and Tags
I discovered my error. Instead of using spaced between my protected tags on the ankihub website, I was using commas (which was either old instructions, or I misread instructions).
