Create and manage tags
Tags can help you structure and organize your posts and conversations. Tags allow you to visually classify posts and conversations by category, which is useful for keeping track of things like engagement for specific campaigns and for providing other team members context about specific messages or posts. Think of a tag as an internal hashtag that can be attached to posts and messages without being visible to the public.

Learn how to apply tags to posts and messages.
Create and view tags in the tag library
It's helpful to have someone, or a small group of people, manage your tag library so your tags are kept tidy and up-to-date. All members can tag posts and messages, but only organization super admins, admins, and users with custom Manage Message Tags permissions can create tags and manage the organization’s tag library.
Note: Tags are helpful for you and your team. They aren't visible to your customers in published posts or in messages.
- Go to Account, and then select Social accounts and teams.
- Select Tags in the organization to view the active tags. You can filter or sort your view.
- Select a tag to view its details, including date created and date modified. Select Create New Tag to create a new tag.
Tip: Add a tag description to provide context for when the tag should be used. Descriptions are visible to team members when they apply tags to content.
