Tagging a File

Any file in Axon Commander can be tagged. Tags are meta-information that can be used to classify data for easy search and for using Association rules.

There are two types of Tags; Text and Choice. Text Tags apply free-form text to the file, while Choice Tags have a list of pre-defined values to apply to the file.

After a Tag is applied to a File, the Tag information can be used when searching for files and can invoke Association rules. For more information, see Managing Associations.

  1. Select the file in the Assets pane and do one of the following:
    • Right-click on the file and select Tag.
    • Click Tag at the bottom of the Assets pane.
    • Open the file in the player and click Tag.
    The Tags dialog box appears.
