Tags help you group translation keys in a clear and flexible way. This makes it easier to filter keys when you're editing, exporting, or setting up tasks and orders. By tagging your keys, you can manage your workflow more efficiently — organize content, quickly select what you need, and download only the tagged keys that matter for a specific task.
Adding and removing tags
Managing tags on a per-key basis
To add or remove a tag from a single key, open your Lokalise project editor, find the key, and click the "tag" icon. To add a tag, enter a new name or choose one from your existing tags. To remove a tag, click the "cancel" icon next to its name.
Managing tags on multiple keys in bulk
You can also add or remove tags to/from multiple keys within a project. To achieve that, open your project editor and select multiple keys.
Choose the Tags: add/remove action from the bulk menu, enter one or more tag names, and click Add or Remove. For enhanced control, you can also filter keys before applying tags to precisely target the ones you want to manage.
