How To Tag Devices & Alerts In Room Alert Account

In Room Alert Account, tags are customizable labels that you can apply to devices and alerts, making it easy to organize and manage your data.

Think of tagging as a way to group items or sort them into virtual folders based on criteria that matter to you—such as physical location, criticality, or responsible team.

Once tags are applied, you can filter device and alert lists accordingly and even save those filters as “Saved Searches,” allowing you to quickly access different views of your data.

For more information about Searches, please see How To Save Searches In Room Alert Account.
