# User Tags

> Use tags to organize datasets, manage workflows, and simplify relabeling or exclusion for training pipelines.

<Card title="How This Helps" icon="tag">
  Tagging makes it easy to group, track, and manage data for training, QA, relabeling, or experimentation. Whether you're cleaning data, preparing a subset, or tracking annotation status — tags let you move faster and stay organized.
</Card>

Tags help you **quickly organize, filter, and take action** on relevant items in your dataset. They can be applied across Clusters, Images, or Objects, and used to streamline curation, quality review, or experimental workflows.

Use cases include:

* **Data Curation**: Group items for training, validation, or internal evaluation. Tags like `train`, `test`, `representative` help define clear splits.
* **Data Cleaning**: Identify problematic items with tags like `low_quality`, `duplicate`, or `needs_review`.
* **Workflow Management**: Add review state tags such as `approved`, `rejected`, `for-review`, or priority labels like `urgent`.
* **Experiment Tracking**: Label data used in experiments (`exp-103`, `baseline-set`) for traceability and auditability.

## Tag Multiple Items

You can assign tags to many items at once across views.

1. Navigate to a dataset and select **Clusters**, **Images**, or **Objects** of interest.
2. Click the **Selected Items** icon in the top right.
3. Click **Manage Tags** and choose from existing tags or create new ones.

***

## View and Remove Tags

You can view and edit tags in the **Assigned Tags** panel.

1. Select your items and open the **Assigned Tags** panel.
2. Click a tag to remove it from any selected items — even if it's not applied to all of them.

***

## Tag Individual Images

You can also tag single images directly in the **Image Details Page**.

1. Open the **Image Details Page** for the image you want to tag.
2. Click **Assign User Tags** in the right-hand pane.
3. Select an existing tag or create a new one.
4. To remove a tag, click the **X** next to its label in the right pane.

<Tip>
  You can mix and match tag workflows — start with bulk tagging, refine at the image level, or export tagged items for review, relabeling, or exclusion.
