8.5. `Canvas tagOrId` arguments

A tagOrId argument specifies one or more objects on the canvas.

If a tagOrId argument is an integer, it is treated as an object ID, and it applies only to the unique object with that ID. See Section 8.3, “Canvas object IDs”.
If such an argument is a string, it is interpreted as a tag, and selects all the objects that have that tag (if there are any). See Section 8.4, “Canvas tags”.
