Tags help you organize and categorize the messages in HelpDesk. Tags are labels attached to the tickets that help you identify the contents of a message.

This article shows you how to create tags and add them to your tickets.

Adding tags allows you to organize your tickets according to the criteria of your choice, e.g., department in charge (sales, support, etc.) or the importance of a message (VIP, urgent).

You can create as many tags as you wish.
