The following diagram shows\nthe label lifecycle, including revisioning:\n**Figure 3.** Lifecycle of a label\n\n1. **Create a label (`create()`)** ---The label is created and stored in a database as `revision_id=1`. The label has the state of `UNPUBLISHED_DRAFT`. In this state:\n - Users can't view the label\n - Users can't apply the label to Drive items.\n2. **(optional) Update a label, field, or choice (`delta()`)**--- Every update, even before it's published, is stored in a database, and the label's revision is incremented.\n3. **Publish a label (`publish()`)** ---The label has the state of `PUBLISHED` and users can apply the label. Publishing the label increments its revision.\n4. **(optional) Update a label, field, or choice (`delta()`)** --- The label, field, or choice is updated and stored in a database as a draft label. The label has the state of `PUBLISHED` with `hasUnpublishedChanges=true` meaning there are draft changes, but they aren't available to users. Each update increments the label's revision.\n5. **(optional) Publish a label (`publish()`)** ---If available, the most-current draft is published. The label has the state of `PUBLISHED` and users can apply the label. Publishing the label increments its version.\n6. **Disable a label (`disable()`)** ---The label has the state of `DISABLED` though users can apply the label through the API. However, a disabled label isn't shown in a UI unless configured to be shown. Deprecating the label increments its revision.\n7. **Enable a label (`enable()`)** ---The label is returned to a `PUBLISHED` state and users can apply the label. Publishing the label increments its revision.\n8. **Delete a label (`delete()`)** ---The label has a state of `DELETED` and can't be applied. Deleted labels are eventually purged.\n\nIt's important to emphasize that every update to a label increments the label's\nrevision. And, if the label has already been published, publishing it again\nafter *n* updates means that its published revision number is revision + *n* + 1\nnumber of successive updates."]]
