Add tags in Rally C# API ( to userStory or Task)

I'm struggling with the syntax to update or create a TASK in the Rally REST API with tags.

here is my code:

//Tag Holder
ArrayList tagArray = new ArrayList();
tagArray.Add(tag._ref);

//the Task itself
DynamicJsonObject toCreate = new DynamicJsonObject();
toCreate["WorkProduct"] = storyRef;

  //i need to pass the tags as a parameter
   NameValueCollection parameters = new NameValueCollection();
  //this is where I am stuck, how do I attach the tags to the parameters

 //call the API to create the task
 CreateResult resultX = api.Create("task", toCreate, parameters );

Thanks so much for any help!

Thanks to @Kyle Morse for giving me the answer to this, in the interest of completeness for anyone else who needs to do this, below is my code for CREATING a task with tags in the Rally API

//task object
DynamicJsonObject toCreate = new DynamicJsonObject();    
toCreate["WorkProduct"] = storyRef;

//Tag Holder
ArrayList tagArray = new ArrayList();

//loop through your tags
foreach(tag in tags)
{
     DynamicJsonObject tagObj = new DynamicJsonObject();
     tagObj["_ref"] = tag._ref;
     tagArray.Add(tagObj);
}

//this is where you attach the tags
toCreate["Tags"] = tagArray;  

//call the API to create the task
CreateResult result = api.Create(WorkSpace._ref,"task", toCreate );

Collections are a little tricky- you're super close. Each entry in the array needs to be an object with a _ref property rather than just the ref.

DynamicJsonObject tagObj = new DynamicJsonObject();
tagObj["_ref"] = tag._ref;
tagArray.Add(tagObj);
