All about managing tags

Managing Tags

It's no secret that running customer research without conducting analysis is, well, pointless.

And one quick way to chop up a customer interview into bite-sized, digestible insights is by using tags. That way, you can associate portions of an interview or response with keywords you're looking to synthesize on a broader study level.

With that said, if you love to analyze and synthesize customer interviews, you know that tagging can quickly become unruly. So, we have introduced "study tags" that are relevant to just a specific study.

Tag

Here's a quick breakdown:

  • Global tags: used across an entire organization to describe something happening in a study or across multiple studies.
  • Study tags: used in a specific study to synthesize and analyze relevant data for that study. Study tags are not available across an organization.

Who can create tags?

By default, all team members with either an Admin or Creator role can create and manage tags. Admins can change this setting to allow only Admins to create and manage tags by navigating to Account > Tags > Permissions toggle in top right.

How do I manage tags?

Global Tag Management:

From the tag manager, you can create groups or "buckets" of tags. These buckets will be visible every time someone on your team highlights a transcript and looks to add tags.
