How to use the Tag and Auto-Tag features in Air Control

Updated over a week ago

Tagging offers the ability to organize your data throughout the platform. You can set the category name, individual tags, and what each tag will apply to upon creation. There are a few examples in the screenshot below.

Tags can then be applied when editing the associated items, like Missions:

If expected tag options are not displaying when tagging an object, make sure the desired group has been selected in the tag’s “apply to” category. For instance, if you make locations or teams for your users, make sure you select “applies to” > “users” in the tag settings.

Auto-Tags

Auto-tags are a new feature that extends the functionality and usefulness of Tags. Auto-tagging, as implied, will automatically tag another object with the same tag as the object that’s getting associated with it. For example, as an Admin I have Tags set up for my user locations or facilities, and each user has been tagged with their corresponding location. By setting up an auto tag from the user to the mission, and to the flight, every event that’s created by or associated with that user will be tagged with their facility location.

Tags could also be used on missions, such as use-case. An auto-tag can then be applied that would map the use cases down to the individual flight level, for more granular reporting.

Once tagging is set up and used across the account, it plays powerfully into reporting capabilities. You can answer many questions about your operations by utilizing these reporting features and filters. In the example below, you can get a mission report that breaks flight activity down by use case and location or department:
