Tags

In Docwize, users have the option of tagging a document. A tag functions like a colorful ‘sticky note’ that helps identify documents related to a similar topic and/or that contain the same key phrases, format, or content. Depending on permissions, users can tag documents, un-tag documents, and use AI-generated tag suggestions. One document can have multiple tags attached to it. Users also have the option of assigning a single document to a tag, or bulk-assigning documents to a tag.

Administrators: For information on creating and managing the tag taxonomy, see Tags in System Configuration.

What users can do in Tags

  • Apply or remove tags from documents
  • Use tags in the preview sidebar
  • Bulk-assign documents to a tag
  • Use AI-generated tag suggestions when the feature is enabled
  • Browse similar documents from the tag suggestions panel

Tag Suggestions

When enabled by an administrator, AI-generated tag recommendations appear automatically in the Tags panel when a document has been analysed. Recommendations are based on similar documents in the workspace, recent tagging patterns, and the document's content and metadata (such as document type, folder, and existing labels).

The Recommended Tags section appears at the top of the Tags panel when suggestions are available.
