API fields text and customTag50

When you submit an order, I can get the sequence number and use that to track that even, but there’s also a a text and customTag50 fields in some requests. What are those fields used for?

{
"accountSpec": "string",
"accountId": 0,
"clOrdId": "string",
"action": "Buy",
"symbol": "string",
"orderQty": 0,
"orderType": "Limit",
"price": 0,
"stopPrice": 0,
"maxShow": 0,
"pegDifference": 0,
"timeInForce": "Day",
"expireTime": "2019-08-24T14:15:22Z",
"text": "string",
"activationTime": "2019-08-24T14:15:22Z",
"customTag50": "string",
"isAutomated": true
}

@Alexander could you please kindly respond to this yearlong question? I am in the same boat wanting to make use of this custom tag. I want to be able to label each order with some custom identifiers. Thanks!
