Tags are short labels, such as "first-time buyer" or "referral", that you can filter **Contacts** by.

## Add a tag

1. **Open the contact**

    Open their full record. **Tags** is in **Details** on the left.

2. **Type the tag**

    Click **Add tag**, type the tag, and press <kbd>Enter</kbd> or type a comma. Press <kbd>Esc</kbd> to stop without saving.

Tags added here are saved in lowercase, and the timeline notes each one you add or remove.

## Remove a tag

Hover over the tag and click the small X beside it.

## Other ways to tag

- In **Quick add**, type tags in **Tags**, separated by commas.
- In a CSV import, map a column to **Tags**. Separate several tags in one cell with commas.

## Filter by tag

On **Contacts**, open **Tags** in the filter bar and pick one. The list shows every tag in use.
