# Search by Tags

After applying a **T****ag** to an Object, the Tag and its Objects can be searched for at the Folder level. Tags can be searched from the **Studio,** within a **Designer Project,** or with **Flow Logic.**

---

## Searching in the Studio

Tags appear in the **Global Search Bar** as a **TagList** object. From here, users can perform actions on the Tag itself such as renaming, editing, and deleting the Tag.

Objects within the Tag are not found this way. Instead, refer to the other methods.![](https://cdn.document360.io/6ef8bcc1-6489-4486-9ad1-83acff7e5df0/Images/Documentation/image-1783956504383.png)

## Searching with a Flow

Tagged Objects may also be searched for within a Flow for dynamic logic based on Tag organization.

This is accomplished with the **AllTagsData** Object property that stores all applied Tag values.

1. Apply a Tag to an Object. Navigate to **System > Security > Account**. Right click on an account then select **More > Manage Tags** and either select a preexisting Tag or enter a new one. If using an account without System folder access, create a **Data Structure** in a Designer Project such as an [Entity](https://documentation.decisions.com/version-10/docs/creating-using-folder-entities).![](https://cdn.document360.io/6ef8bcc1-6489-4486-9ad1-83acff7e5df0/Images/Documentation/image-1782917489714.png)
2. In a **Designer** **Project**, select [create a Flow](/version-10/docs/create-flows).
3. In the **Flow** **Designer**, click **SETUP INPUT DATA.**
4. Enter a name and select the created Data Structure for the **TYPE.** **Save** and close the window.![](https://cdn.document360.io/6ef8bcc1-6489-4486-9ad1-83acff7e5df0/Images/Documentation/image-1782917450589.png)
5. From the **FAVORITE STEPS** category of the **Toolbox** tab, add a **Show** **Popup** step and connect it to both the **Start** and **End** steps.
6. Select the **Show Popup** step to view its Properties tab. Change the Subject's mapping type to **Constant** "Tag Applied" and then map **AccountData.AllTagsData** to **Message**.![](https://cdn.document360.io/6ef8bcc1-6489-4486-9ad1-83acff7e5df0/Images/Documentation/image-1780927222604.png)
7. Save the Flow, then if desired, close via **X**.

## Debug

1. From the **Flow** **Designer** click the **Debug** link on the top action bar.
2. Select the **Edit** Icon and **PICK** the **Account** that contains the added **Tag**.
3. Click **START DEBUGGING.** The **AllTagsData** property introduced the Tags into the Flow as a String value and can then be defined as a later step's input.
