Add Tags

This applies to: Visual Data Discovery

Users with the privileges Administer Tags, Create Tags or who have READ + WRITE permissions to dashboards, data sources, and visual gallery visuals can add tags to these resources. Once tags are added to a resource, users can filter dashboards, data sources, and visuals they see by content tag.

All tags added to your environment are visible to all users within the account.

Only users with the privilege Administer Tags can delete other users' tags.
