Topics and Tags Settings

Topics and Tags Settings

Topics on objects allow users to add topics to records so they can organize them by common themes. With Chatter enabled, users can also see related posts and comments. Enabling topics for an object disables public tags on records of that object type. Personal tags aren’t affected.

Required Editions

Available in: both Salesforce Classic and Lightning Experience

Topic and tag settings are available in: All Editions

  • Enable Tags
    Allow users to add personal or public tags to most records. Tags are words or short phrases that users associate to records to describe and organize data in a personalized way.
  • Adding Tags to the Sidebar
    When you enable tags for your organization, you can add the Tags component to your users' sidebar.
  • Delete Personal Tags for Deactivated Users
    Your org can have up to 5,000,000 personal and public tags applied to records across all users. If your org is approaching this limit, delete personal tags for deactivated users.
