🧐 What is a tag and why they are key

A tag is a term or set of terms applied to content or to a profile. Used correctly, it is an effective sorting and selecting filter which facilitates access to relevant information.

The tag can perform several tasks:

  • use standardized and harmonized vocabulary to qualify the object or subject of content

  • indicate the value of usage or the nature of content (e.g. "competitive intelligence", "only in-house dissemination", etc)

  • search for information that the search engine cannot detect (e.g. content language)

  • be the trigger for targeted dissemination, from individual alerts or shared alerts

  • support the creation of filtered and dynamic views in the space tabs

Moreover, as tags are collective and cross-functional in spaces (apart from exceptions defined by the administrator), they optimize global searching across the spaces.
