OM3.6: Admin > Assets > Tags

Overview

Tags are keywords attached to assets that make them easier to find via search. The Tags page is essentially the Master Tag List for your Brandkit and is a centralised place to review, clean up, and manage all the tags used across your Brandkit account.

What you’ll see

Navigate to Admin > Assets > Tags

• Filter (search for tags in the list)
• Sort Order selector
• Download as CSV button
• Delete Unused Tags (deletes all Tags that have 0 assets)
• Add Tags (you can add tags here but they are mostly created when Added to Assets by a Human operator, AI Auto Tagging or EXIF/IPTC/XMP metadata extraction)
• Import tags (Brandkit staff only can import Tags via CSV)
• Tags List

The Tags List show a paginated and filterable view of every tag in use across your Brandkit, with a count showing how many assets carry each one.

The List view is split into 6 columns:

• Tag name
• Number of Assets - with a link to a Tag search
• Origin (Human or Computer)
• Created at date (original create date in the account)
• Edit button (yo can edit a Tag text)
• Delete button (you can delete the tag entirely)

Adding tags

Tags can be added on this page but are not applied to Asset here. Tags are mostly added directly to Assets when tagging an Asset either one at a time or via a batch tagging process in the Basket, or by AI when auto-tagging, or by being extracted from uploaded file metadata.

Type-ahead Tag suggestions

Tags in the master tag list will be used as type-ahead suggestions when tagging Assets, or searching for Assets.

Tips

• Consistent tagging significantly improves search results for users.
• Consider adding synonym tags and applying them to Assets. (e.g. Add separate Autumn and Fall tags to a photo of Autumn leaves )
• Combined Tags also work for type-ahead suggestions (e.g. add a tag Autumn/Fall - a search for Autumn or Fall will suggest the validAutumn/Fall tag search.)
• Review the Tags view periodically to remove redundant or misspelled tags.
• A well-tagged library reduces reliance on album browsing — users can find what they need directly via search.
• Many system enforce lower case tags and no spaces. In Brandkit out tags support spaces and capital letters, abbreviations, etc, We capitalize the first letter of Tags because it looks better - but if you prefer lower case everything you can - it’s up to you - but many auto generated metadata value (e.g. Asset Type) will use capitalized first letters.
