Tags are a great way to organise and manage ideas. Easily find and identify the right ideas to work with and export for your reports.

Create tags

1. Click on the cogwheel in the upper right corner and then on Tags in the drop-down menu.

2. Click on the plus icon and type in the name of the tag. Then click on Create. 

Tag ideas 

There are two ways of tagging ideas:

• You can add the tag in the user level 
• You can add the tag in the admin level, especially when
  you like to tag a large number of ideas at once.

Add tags in the user level

1. Click on an idea and then open the Manage tab in the right navigation.

2. Click on Add tag and then on the tags you want to add to the idea.

3. You can use the arrow keys to go to the next ideas.

 Add tags in the admin level

1. Click on the cogwheel in the upper right corner and then on All ideas in the dropdown menu.

2. Select the ideas you want to tag and then click on the Tag icon in the upper right corner.

3. Choose the tags from the list. 

Edit tags

1. Click on the cogwheel in the upper right corner and then on Tags in the drop-down menu.

2. Hover over the tag you want to edit and click on the cogwheel that appears next to the tag. Then click on Edit title.

Add tags to multiple ideas at once

In case you want to tag multiple ideas, you can upload an updated idea list in Excel format to the Nosco platform and so tag all ideas at once. 

To get started, click on the cogwheel in the upper right corner and then on All ideas in the drop-down-menu.

Step 1 - Download idea list

Select the ideas you want to update by clicking on the area around the name. Click on More in the upper right corner and then on Ideas Excel Report.

Step 2 - Prepare an Excel file

Once you have opened the idea list you can remove all unnecessary columns. The spreadsheet needs to at least include the idea ID. Create a new column for each tag and save the spreadsheet as xlsx. file.

Step 3 - Upload tags 

Now you can go back to All ideas in the admin level. Click on More and then on Update tags with Excel in the dropdown menu. 

Drag and drop the Excel file in the dedicated area and then match the columns with the right headers. 

Click on Next in the bottom left corner and have a look at the report. If everything looks alright click on Import.
