Tagging

Organize and find notes with keywords

Tags are keywords you attach to notes for quick filtering and discovery. They work across your entire workspace, making it easy to find related content no matter where it lives in your folder structure.

Creating Tags

Type # in the editor followed by your tag name. The tag command bar shows existing tags for quick selection, or just keep typing to create a new one.

Nested tags: Use / to create hierarchies:

  • #work
  • #work/projects
  • #work/projects/2024

When you create #work/projects/2024, Octarine automatically includes the parent tags #work and #work/projects—so you can filter by any level without creating separate tags.

Using Tags

Click any tag in the editor to search for it. This opens the search drawer with all notes containing that tag.

Tags View

Click the tag icon in the top-right corner to see all tags in your workspace. Each tag shows how many notes reference it. Click any tag to search for it across your workspace.
