Tags and Links in Metadata Yaml

Things I have tried

I suspect since I’m new to obsidian I’m not using the correct terminology.

What I’m trying to do

I have tags and links in the metadata at the top of my file; however, those tags/links don’t show up in the tooling on the side. Is there a setting, plugin, or a convention that exposes the metadata so links/tags are respected?

Example

The tag #journal/daily will only show up in the sidebar/graph if I move it out of the metadata block. The links will only show up in the sidebar/graph if I move them out of the metadata block

template: [[Daily Journal Template]]
week: [[2021-08-W32]]
tags: #journal/daily

# Daily Jornal - 2021-08-01

You got the tag syntax wrong — there’s no # when using tags: in the front matter.

And links aren’t supported in the front matter at the moment.
