Adding and Removing Chat Tags in Zendesk

Learn how to add and remove chat tags in Zendesk Chat to categorize chat sessions based on conversation content.

How are chat tags added and removed in Zendesk Chat?

Chat tags in Zendesk Chat can be added and removed directly in the chat panel or by using shortcuts with associated chat tags. You can also manage them in the History for past chats and offline messages. This allows you to categorize chat sessions based on the actual content of the conversation, making it easier to track and manage customer interactions.

For example, if a customer is having issues with your reporting feature, you might add a 'reporting_issue' tag to their chat session. This helps in organizing and retrieving chat sessions based on specific issues or topics discussed.
