Create and apply tags¶

To help organize your samples, you can create and apply tags in the data center, label center, and test center. Tags are shared across centers and can be used to filter, group, and manage samples during review and processing.

To group your data, begin by creating a tag, and then apply it to your samples.

To create and apply tags in the label or test center¶

On the project details page, in the Label center section, click the right-arrow button ().
To create a tag, in the Tags panel on the left, click the plus button.
Enter a unique name for the tag, and then press Enter.

The tag appears at the top of the list in the Tags panel. The number next to Tags indicates the total number of tags created. The tag is also available in the Tags group of the Filter panel.
To apply the tag, in the thumbnails view, select the samples you want to tag.
In the Tags panel, hover over the tag, and then click the tag icon or name.

The tag is assigned to the selected samples and displayed with a filled icon. The samples stay selected, so you can apply additional tags.

To create a new tag, go to the Tags tab.
Click Create tag, enter a unique name, and then click Save.
