Setup — Tags

Written by Yoanna Hristova

Tags are shared labels used in Setup to identify media resources and organise them into operational groups. They make it easier to find, filter, and manage cameras, commentators, graphics, highlights, logos, replays, breaks, layers, slates, wipes, and live sources.

Video walkthrough

This walkthrough tours the Tags tab in Setup and how a tag is created and applied.

Tag creation

  1. Go to SETUP > TAGS.

  2. Select CREATE TAG.

  3. Enter a NAME.

  4. Add a short DESCRIPTION.

  5. Choose a COLOUR.

  6. Save the tag.

Field

Purpose

Name

The visible tag label users apply to resources, for example Camera 1 or Logo On.

Description

Explains what the tag should be applied to.

Colour

Provides a visual cue so related tag families are easier to identify.

Naming conventions

  • Use title case to match the existing tag list.

  • Use the resource type first, followed by the number or state — for example Camera 1 or Logo Off.

  • Use All for group tags — for example All Cameras.

  • Use clear descriptions beginning with “For tagging…” where appropriate.

  • Keep colour coding consistent across related tag families.

Good practice

  • Use the existing tag families before creating new labels.

  • Use group tags for broad filtering and numbered tags for specific resources.

  • Do not create duplicate or one-off tags that will not be reused.

  • Keep descriptions and colour coding consistent.
