# Tags

{% hint style="info" %}
**Who can use this feature?**

Task Owners, Assignees and Admin users can add Tags to Tasks.

***

All Project Users can create and edit Tags by default. This can be changed to Admins only in the Project Settings.
{% endhint %}

Tags give you a way to label Tasks with anything that matters to your team, from safety and risk, to key priorities, review flags, or anything else. They’re multi-select, fully custom, and can be used to filter views to suit different meetings, roles, or priorities.

## Creating Tags

***

Creating tags lets you build a reusable library of Tags to assign to Tasks.

## Assigning Tags to Tasks&#x20;

***

Tags can be added to Tasks to help group and organise work across your plan, they’re a flexible way to highlight key information without changing the structure.

* Tags are a multi-select property
* Archived Tags will no longer be available to add to tasks but will still exist on tasks it was assigned to before the resource was archived

## Filter by Tag

***

Filtering by Tags lets you focus on specific Tasks based on what’s been added to them. It’s a quick way to review and manage work related to a particular Tag across your plan.
