Probably openhab-addons. I think the config UIs like this are built from XML created by the add-on.
If you do file the issue (I think you should) bring up the possibility of removing the option entirely (IFTTT kind of made themselves irrelevant with their subscription changes anyway) or make it an advanced property you don’t see without checking the box to show it.

I was thinking along those lines, too. No need to see it if you’re using myopenHAB.

Done. I mentioned removing IFTTT, but there’s an outside chance that some people are still using it with openHAB and private cloud servers.

Although support for IFTTT was removed from myopenHAB.org long ago, there's stil… l an option to expose items in MainUI under the openHab Cloud settings:
![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/47199790/161840202-467f4352-d410-4f7c-b632-c3a52d94edbc.png)
I assume this is to allow people running their own cloud servers to use IFTTT. Unfortunately, it causes confusion for many users who assume it's required for Alexa and Google Assistant integration (which is quite reasonable).
I suggest:
1. Having "Items to expose" only appear when you click "Show advanced".
2. Renaming it "Items to expose to IFTTT"
3. Updating the caption: "If you've set up a private cloud server with IFTTT integration, use this option to indicate which items can be controlled with IFTTT. This setting does not work with myopenHAB.org and is not required for integration with Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant."
Thanks for you work!

PaperUI doesn’t support tags. You’ll have to do it through the REST API docs.
