Organize Wiki Documentation with Page Tags
Introduction
WikiPRO allows authors to assign tags to wiki pages, making it easier to organize, categorize, search, and filter content across your Azure DevOps wiki.
Tags can be used to:
- Group related documentation
- Improve content discoverability
- Create topic-based navigation
- Support reporting and content management activities
Adding Tags to a Wiki Page
Follow these steps to assign tags to a wiki page:
- Open the desired wiki page.
- Select Edit.

- Click on the Add tag button
- Press Enter after each tag to add it.
- Select Save to apply the changes.
Example
Add the following tags to a page about release management:
- Release
- Deployment

The page will then appear in tag-based searches and filtered views associated with those tags.
Editing Existing Tags
To modify existing tags:
