Tags are a lightweight, flexible way to organize your videos around topics. Using tags helps your team quickly discover and engage with the topics that matter to them.
Tags are best used alongside collections. You can think of collections like folders, which are most effective when organized by team, project, or meeting, and think of tags like labels, which can be used to group videos by the topics being covered.
Create a new tag or add an existing tag
Tags can be a single keyword like #goal or a short phrase like #newhire. You can tag just the relevant sentence or paragraph in a video, or you can tag the entire video.
When you start to enter a tag (#), Rewatch will automatically suggest tags that have already been created. If you want to add a new tag, simply keep typing, and you'll be prompted to create a new tag. All tags are visible to everyone in your channel.

Tags will be created in all lowercase even if they are typed with capital letters.

When you click on a tag, you'll see all the comments and videos with that particular tag. Entire videos that have been tagged will be indicated with a purple icon and sections of videos will be indicated by a blue icon along with the exact timestamps.
You'll also be able to see who tagged the comment or video, when the tag was added, and whether the comments and videos are shared with your entire channel or private to you and specific collections or members.
