Tags allow you to organize Turtl Docs within your account with use cases, topics, and labels and take advantage of filtering in analytics dashboards. There are 3 types of tags that you can use.
Use cases: select your best fit use case from a predefined list of use cases.
Topics: add topics to describe what your Turtl Doc is about.
Labels: for any other custom tags, use labels. You can learn more about labels in the video below, including:

Adding/removing tags on a Turtl Doc
While publishing a Turtl Doc
You can add labels while publishing a Turtl Doc. When you're ready to publish your Turtl Doc, in the editor click the "Publish" button and follow the screens through to the "Tags" settings.
Click in the box to see a dropdown of existing labels and start typing to filter the list. Alternatively, you can create new labels by typing in the box and clicking enter. Click the "x" next to any of the added labels to remove it.
In the Doc settings
You can also add and remove labels on any Doc by clicking on the edit drop-down menu, selecting "Settings" and navigating to the "Tags" tab. Adding and removing labels works the same way as when you're publishing a Turtl Doc.
Bulk updating tags on your Turtl Docs
You can add/change the labels on multiple Turtl Docs at the same time by selecting your Turtl Docs, clicking "Edit settings" and selecting either use case, topics or labels.
Note: The tags that you add here will replace any existing tags added to the Turtl Docs.
Adding topic tags to chapters
Optionally, you can add tags to individual chapters for more granularity than at the Doc level. To add a topic to a chapter, navigate to that chapter in the editor and click "Chapter settings" -> "Topics".
To easily be able to see if a Chapter already has topics added, hover over the Title page of a Chapter in the outline. If the Chapter is tagged with topics, there will be a tag icon in the top left corner of the thumbnail.
Managing labels & topics
Admin & Global Admin users are able to edit, delete, or create new labels or topics in the management screens accessible via "Labels" & "Topics" in the Team "Settings" menu. You can manage the existing labels & topics on your Team or create new ones in advance to be used to tag your Turtl Docs. Go to the drop-down menu in your Team account name -> "Settings". Here you'll find a screen to manage labels, and another to manage topics.
To create a new label or topic, type in the empty box and click on the "+" button. You can also add more than one new label or topic at a time by clicking the same "+" button. Don't forget to click "Save" to complete the changes.
To edit a label or topic, click into the box and change as required. To delete a label or topic click the "x" at the end of the box. After you have finished editing/removing labels or topics, click "Save" to complete the changes.
Filter by tags
You can search tagged Docs from the drop-down boxes at the top of the Turtl Docs listing.
Using tags in your Analytics Dashboard
Another useful feature that Turtl offers is the ability to filter your analytics by using use cases, topics or labels. If you created an "internal" label for all the Turtl Docs that are meant to only be seen by people within your team, or if you created a "newsletter" label for your monthly newsletter, using this filter in your Analytics Dashboard could provide data specific to those Turtl Docs.
Once on your analytics dashboard, navigate to the "All labels", "All use cases" or "All topics" drop-downs and select which tags you would like to filter by.
