What is Tagging?
Tagging is when you add words or phrases as metadata to content. Tags are not visible when the content displayed, nor are viewers aware they’re being used. Tags are used for keeping your content organized, searchable, automating content distribution, and grouping KDAs.

Tagging Content in your Media Library
- From your Dashboard, expand the Media section on the left.
- Click Media Library
- Locate the content you would like to tag.
- Click the pencil icon next to your content.
- You will now have an edit window open. Click into the tags field and type your tag, press the comma (,) or tab key after each one for it to be registered as a tag.
- Once you are done entering tags, click the Save button in the lower right hand corner of the window.

How to Tag Content in Bulk
There is currently no way to tag content in bulk (as of version 1.4.7) once it’s already imported into your media library. Layouts cannot be tagged in bulk at all. In order to tag content in bulk, it must be done when it’s imported into your Media Library Manually or imported through a Courier.
Bulk Tagging through Manual Media Library Import
- From your Dashboard, expand the Media section on the left.
- Click Media Library
- If you have folders setup, navigate to the folder you would like the content to be imported into.
- Click the Import Media button in the top left corner.
- Click into the tags field on the right and type your tag, press the comma (,) or tab key after each one for it to be registered as a tag.
- You may now drag your content into the main box on the left or click the Browse button to import your media. Any content imported before clicking Save will get tagged with all tags you typed into the tags field.
Bulk Tagging through Courier
Adding Tags to a New Courier Rule
If you have not yet created a Courier Rule, but want to make one that tags all of the content from it, use the following steps.
- From your Dashboard, expand the Media section on the left.
- Click Couriers.
- Click the Add Courier button in the top left.
- After setting up the rule, Click into the tags field and type your tag, press the comma (,) or tab key after each one for it to be registered as a tag.
- Now click Save to save and activate your new Courier Rule. Any content imported through this rule will be tagged with all of the tags you entered.
Bulk Tagging Content Through an Existing Courier Rule
If you’ve already created a rule and would like to add or remove tags to content imported through it going forward, use the following steps.
- From your Dashboard, expand the Media section on the left.
- Click Couriers.
- Find the rule you would like to edit and click the pencil icon to the right of it.
- This gives you the rule editing screen. Add or remove tags as you would like.
- Click the Save button in the lower right corner to apply these tags to any content imported from now on. These tags will not retroactively apply to content that has already been imported into your media library. To do that, you can delete the existin content in your source folder and re-add it.
