Quick Answer
How do you add or remove tags from multiple contacts?
Open Contacts or a Smart List, select the contacts you want to update, and choose Add Tag or Remove Tag from the bulk actions menu. Select one or more tags, confirm the action, and review the results. Bulk actions cannot be undone automatically.
What the Add or Remove Tags Bulk Action Does
The Add Tag and Remove Tag bulk actions let you update tags across a selected group of contacts at the same time.
Tags can help organize contact records, segment audiences, support follow-up campaigns, and make contact lists easier to filter.
Bulk tagging is useful when the same update needs to be applied to several contacts without opening and editing each record individually.
Existing tags are not duplicated
When a selected contact already has a tag you are adding, BizStackPro skips that tag instead of creating a duplicate.
Bulk Tagging at a Glance
Before You Begin
Review the contact selection and tags carefully before confirming a bulk update.
- Decide whether you need to add tags or remove tags.
- Identify the exact contacts or Smart List you want to update.
- Confirm whether the update should apply to the current page or every contact in the database.
- Review the tag names for spelling and consistency.
- Confirm whether one tag or several tags should be changed.
- Check whether the selected tags are used by workflows, campaigns, or filters.
- Test the action with five to ten contacts when you are unsure.
- Sign in to your BizStackPro account.
Step 1: Select the Contacts
Start from Contacts or a Smart List and select the records that should receive the tag update.
Open Contacts or a Smart List
Open Contacts or select the Smart List containing the contacts you want to update.
Select Individual Contacts
Select the checkbox beside each individual contact when only specific records should be changed.
Select the Current Page
Use the checkbox at the top of the table to select every contact displayed on the current page.
Select the Full Database
When you want to include every contact, click the link that appears after selecting the page, commonly labeled Select all in company.
Review the Selection
Confirm the number of selected contacts before opening the bulk actions menu.
Current-page and full-database selections are different
The top checkbox may select only the contacts shown on the current page. Use the additional selection link only when the bulk action should apply to every contact in the database.
Important Notes Before Confirming
There Is No Undo
A completed bulk tag action cannot be reversed automatically. A correction requires another bulk action or manual editing.
Check the Contact Count
Confirm how many contacts are selected before applying or removing tags.
Review Select All in Company
Make sure the full-database option was used intentionally and not selected by mistake.
Test a Small Batch
Apply the change to five to ten contacts first when the result is uncertain.
Tag changes may affect automation and segmentation
Before adding or removing tags, review whether they are used in workflows, campaigns, Smart Lists, reporting, or other contact filters.
