Access Tags link specific people to certain products, documents, or other entities. When you assign an Access Tag to a product or document, everyone with the same tag automatically gets the correct permissions.
This simplifies permissions management across projects, especially when working with large teams.
π οΈ How to Add an Access Tag
- Open the Project
Navigate to the relevant project in the Projects module. - Go to the Access Tag Tab
Click the Access Tag tab in the project details view. - Click "+ Access Tag"
Opens the creation panel on the right. - Choose a Category
Select either Document or Product depending on where the tag will be used. - Enter the Tag Name
Write the specific tag you want to use (e.g., AllProduct, AllDocument). - Click "Save and Close"
Your tag is now created and active.
π¦ What Are Access Tags Used For?
Access Tags are used in:
- Product Access Control
When a product is tagged, everyone with the matching Access Tag gets product-related permissions automatically. - Document Access Control
When a document is tagged, everyone with the matching Access Tag gets document-related permissions automatically.
This removes the need to assign people manually each time you create a new document or product.
