There are two types of tags in Productboard, note tags, and feature tags. Both offer easy, flexible ways to categorize, sort, and filter what you see. Each type of note works separately (e.g., tags on a note will not carry over to the feature and vice versa).

How to use tags on the Insights board
On the Insights board, note tags serve as a flexible way of categorizing notes, allowing you to filter for them later.

To filter by tags:
- Click the Filter (
) button.
- Click on Tags(
) in the drop-down menu and select the tags you would like to filter by.
You can choose the following options:
- All of the selected - you'd see the notes that have all the chosen tags.
- Any of the selected (default) - you'd see notes that have one or more of the tags selected.
- None of the selected - you'd only see insights that don't have any of the tags you selected.

How to apply tags in bulk to multiple notes

You can click on a specific tag in the Tag column to filter your view by that tag.
How tags work with integrations
Tags on Intercom and Zendesk conversations are automatically imported to the Insights board when new conversations/tickets arrive in Productboard.
When you push features from Productboard to Jira, Trello, or Pivotal Tracker, your feature tags in Productboard will not carry over to those other tools.
When pushing features to GitHub, you have the option of syncing Productboard tags to GitHub labels.
How to manage tags
You can delete, rename, and merge feature tags and note tags.
Access tag management:
- On the left-hand menu under Data, select Tags above the tag cloud.
- On the Features board: Click the
Add columns button, select Default fields(
), then Tags.
Here you'll see the list of all note and feature tags. To rename a tag, select its name to edit it.
Productboard's tags are case insensitive. If you apply a tag to some note/feature that is identical to an existing tag (apart from capitalization), Productboard will adhere to the capitalization of the existing tag.
