Tags Overview
The tag feature is a great way to organize your contacts. Adding and removing tags will help you determine what the contact is interested in, what membership level they are on, what stage the contact is at (similar but more granular than a pipeline stage). You can add more than one tag to a contact.
Tags can be used in Contacts to Filter your contacts list to perform a Bulk Actions or to save a Smart List. Adding or removing tags can also trigger Workflows.
TAGS DASHBOARD
Click on Settings > Tags to view existing tags. You can search forms by name using the Search Box. You can change page in the bottom right corner. There is also information on when the tag was created and when it was last updated.
EDIT AN EXISTING TAG
To edit an existing tag, click on the ellipsis menu (three vertical dots) and select Edit. Change the tag as desired and press Update. If you edit the name of the tag, the change will be global.
DELETE AN EXISTING TAG
To delete an existing tag, click on the ellipsis menu (three vertical dots) and select Delete. Press Delete in the popup window to confirm. Deleting a tag in settings will delete the tag form all contacts.

CREATE A TAG IN SETTINGS
1. Click on Settings > Tags. In the top right corner, click on the blue + New Tag button.
