Labeling Conversations, Messages, and Comments in Engage

Labels in Engage allow your teams to categorize conversations and provide context to those replying to messages. For example, you may have certain team members responsible for questions, while others may be responsible for collecting feedback about a campaign.

Once you have Engage labels applied, you can then choose to have a new feed showing specifically labeled conversations or report on the labels to spot trending topics in your social communications.


Adding a label

  1. Within Engage, open the detail view of a conversation by clicking on a post.
  2. Hover over the post, click on the label tag and add an existing label or create a new one.  Screenshot_2023-03-21_at_10.47.11_AM.png
