Using Auto-Tagging on Saved Mentions

Automatically apply tags to mentions as you save them

Updated today

Auto-tagging allows you to automatically apply a tag to every mention you save from a specific Topic. This is especially helpful when you want to organize your coverage consistently โ€” for example, tagging everything related to Education, Product Launches, Executive News, or Competitor Mentions.

Below is a step-by-step guide to setting it up and managing your auto-tags.


๐Ÿ”น Step 1 โ€” Create and Save Your Topic

Start by creating the search you want to monitor.
Once youโ€™re happy with the search terms, save it as a Topic.


๐Ÿ”น Step 2 โ€” Enable Auto-Tagging When Saving the Topic

When saving the Topic, select:

Tag Mentions Automatically on Save

You can:

  • Create a new tag, or

  • Select an existing tag

In this example, the tag Education will be applied to every saved mention that matches the Topic.


๐Ÿ”น Step 3 โ€” Auto-Tagging in Action

From now on, every time you save a mention from this Topic:

  • The chosen tag will automatically be added

  • No manual tagging is needed

  • Tags remain consistent across your full dataset

This ensures cleaner organisation for reporting, filtering, and exporting.


๐Ÿ”น Step 4 โ€” Managing Auto-Tags from the Topic Panel

Inside any Topic, you can manage the tags associated with that Topic using the Tag Management icon in the right-hand panel.

Here you can:

  • Add or remove auto-tags

  • Change which tag is applied

  • Turn auto-tagging on/off

๐Ÿ”น Tagging On-Demand

You also have the option to apply a tag during certain mention-curating processes, as opposed to auto-tagging every saved mention.

This is designed for users processing a lot of saved content regularly, as a way of avoiding slowing down the performance of their account by applying tags to large volumes of content.

We advise that you discuss your required workflow with a member of the Agility team before using this feature.
