ActiveCampaign Tags
ActiveCampaign Tags manages the tags of your ActiveCampaign account, the labels you give contacts to segment them and trigger automations, such as customer, webinar-lead or vip. You can create a tag, look up one or all of them, change it and delete it.
To add a tag to a contact or remove it, use ActiveCampaign Contacts with Add Tag or Remove Tag.
When to use it
- You need a tag’s ID to apply it to contacts from another component.
- You are organizing a new event and want to create its tag before registrations start coming in.
- You want to review the tags in your account to merge duplicates.
- A campaign has ended and you want to delete the tag you no longer use.

You can pass the tag ID to ActiveCampaign Contacts to tag contacts. The component can also be connected to an Agent as a tool, so the agent decides when to look up or create tags. See Tool Mode.
