# Using tags

Tags in the Navixy system are labels that facilitate quick and convenient searches for places, geofences, employees, tasks, trackers, and vehicles. You can create custom tags according to your needs, and each object can have multiple tags assigned.

## Case

To simplify searching for objects, assign specific tags to related items. For example, if a team of employees services several places and uses specific vehicles, you can assign a unique tag to these objects. This way, you can easily find tasks assigned to these teams.

## Creation

First, create the tag using the `tag/create` method. Let's name it "team1."

API request:

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="cURL" %}

```shell
curl --request POST \
  --url 'https://api.eu.navixy.com/v2/tag/create' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{"hash": "22eac1c27af4be7b9d04da2ce1af111b", "tag": {"name": "team1", "color": "#00BFFF"}}'
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="HTTP GET" %}
{% code overflow="wrap" %}

```shell
https://api.eu.navixy.com/v2/tag/create?hash=a6aa75587e5c59c32d347da438505fc3&tag={"name": "team1", "color": "#00BFFF"}
```

{% endcode %}
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

The Navixy platform will reply with the created tag ID. You can find this tag using the `tag/list` method.

## Assigning

Next, assign this tag to your objects. You can do this when updating or creating objects by adding the "tags" parameter:

* [Place](/docs/navixy-api/user-api/resources/field-service/place/work-with-poi.md#place-object) - [update](/docs/navixy-api/user-api/resources/field-service/place/work-with-poi.md#post-place-update)/[create](/docs/navixy-api/user-api/resources/field-service/place/work-with-poi.md#post-place-create)
* [Task](/docs/navixy-api/user-api/resources/field-service/task.md#task-object) - [update](/docs/navixy-api/user-api/resources/field-service/task.md#post-task-update)/[create](/docs/navixy-api/user-api/resources/field-service/task.md#post-task-create)
* [Task schedule](/docs/navixy-api/user-api/resources/field-service/task/schedule.md#task-schedule-entry-object) - [update](/docs/navixy-api/user-api/resources/field-service/task/schedule.md#post-task-schedule-update)/[create](/docs/navixy-api/user-api/resources/field-service/task/schedule.md#post-task-schedule-create)
* [Employee](/docs/navixy-api/user-api/resources/field-service/employee.md#employee-object) - [update](/docs/navixy-api/user-api/resources/field-service/employee.md#post-employee-update)/[create](/docs/navixy-api/user-api/resources/field-service/employee.md#post-employee-create)
* [Vehicle](/docs/navixy-api/user-api/resources/fleet/vehicle.md#vehicle-object) - [update](/docs/navixy-api/user-api/resources/fleet/vehicle.md#post-vehicle-update)/[create](/docs/navixy-api/user-api/resources/fleet/vehicle.md#post-vehicle-create)
* [Zone](/docs/navixy-api/user-api/resources/tracking/zone.md#entity-description) - [update](/docs/navixy-api/user-api/resources/tracking/zone.md#post-zone-update)/[create](/docs/navixy-api/user-api/resources/tracking/zone.md#post-zone-create)
* [Tracker](/docs/navixy-api/user-api/resources/tracking/tracker.md#tracker-object-structure) - Use the `tags/set` method

## Searching objects with tags

To find all objects with a specific tag, use the `tag/search` method.

API request:

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="cURL" %}

```shell
curl --request POST \
  --url 'https://api.eu.navixy.com/v2/tag/search' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{"hash": "22eac1c27af4be7b9d04da2ce1af111b", "tag_ids": [179227]}'
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="HTTP GET" %}

```shell
https://api.eu.navixy.com/v2/tag/search?hash=22eac1c27af4be7b9d04da2ce1af111b&tag_ids=[179227]
```

{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

The platform will respond with objects that have the assigned tag:

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://navixy.com/docs/navixy-api/user-api/guides/fleet-management/use-tags.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
