Tags and Organization

Organize documents with color-coded tags.

Overview

Tags help you organize documents by status, department, project, or any category that fits your workflow. Each tag has a name and an optional color.

Tags appear as colored badges next to each document in the list view.

From the Document Detail Page

  1. Open a document
  2. Click + Tag below the document title
  3. Select an existing tag from the dropdown, or create a new one
  4. To remove a tag, click the x on the tag badge

Creating a New Tag

  1. Click + Tag on any document
  2. Type a name in the "New tag name" field
  3. Select a color from the color picker
  4. Click Create & add

The tag is created for your organization and applied to the document in one step.

Available Colors

Tags support 8 colors: gray, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, and pink.
