Zendesk Chat offers two types of tags: Chat tags and Javascript API/trigger tags. Chat tags are used to categorize chat sessions based on the content of the conversation, such as tagging a chat with 'reportingissue' if a customer is having issues with your reporting feature. On the other hand, Javascript API and trigger tags provide more general information about the visitor, like tagging a visitor as 'returningcustomer' if they have previously purchased something on your website.
These tags differ in how they are added, stored, and displayed. Chat tags are added directly in the chat panel or through shortcuts, while Javascript API and trigger tags are added via API calls or triggers. Both types of tags can be searched using the advanced search Tags field in History. For more details, you can refer to theoriginal Zendesk documentation.
