Add tags to a dataset

Tags are keywords that you can add to a dataset to help dataset consumers categorize and find datasets. When searching for datasets, you can use tags as search criteria. Tags are also displayed in the tooltip when pointing to a dataset tile or row.

The following two types of tags are available:

  • Public — Automatically visible within a tenant so that other users may reuse the same tags for their datasets. Only authors or users with editing rights can add or update public tags.

  • Private — Visible only for the user who created them. All users with access to a dataset can add private tags for their personal classification purposes.

Prerequisites
  • You have a dataset in the Datasets pane.

  • You have all the necessary role permissions granted by an administrator in Access Manager.

  • To add public tags to the shared content, you need to have the View, Edit shared content permissions.

Procedure
  1. On the sidebar, click Datasets.

    The Datasets pane appears.

    Tile view is selected by default.

  2. For the dataset, point to More actions, and then select Modify > Tags.

    The Tags dialog appears.

  3. In the Public tags or Private tags field, type a tag name, and then either press Enter or select a tag from the dropdown list.

    To remove a tag, press Backspace twice or click the Remove icon in the tag.

  4. Click Save.

    When pointing to the dataset tile, tags are displayed in the tooltip.
