Title: A Guide to Efficient Automation: How to Add and Manage Tags on the Homescreen

In the world of automation, organizing your tasks efficiently can make a significant difference in productivity. One way to streamline your automations and keep track of their execution order is by utilizing tags on the Homescreen. Tags not only help in categorizing your automations but also serve as handy reminders of the intended purpose of each task.

Understanding the Importance of Tag Management

Managing tags plays a crucial role in maintaining a structured workflow. By assigning tags to your automations, you can easily identify the sequence in which they should run, define their purpose, target audience, or any other relevant information. For instance, imagine having two automations where one must always precede the other to ensure accurate data processing. By tagging them appropriately, you can ensure seamless execution.

Practical Example of Tag Implementation

Let's consider a scenario where you have two automations: one that populates a Google sheet with listings and another that extracts additional details for each item from the sheet. To manage these automations effectively, you can assign specific tags to denote their order of execution. For the automation populating the Google sheet, you could add a tag labeled "First" to signify its priority. Similarly, the automation extracting details can be tagged as "Second."

VIDEO TRANSCRIPT

So managing tags is a great way to organize your automations and maybe remind you of the order things are supposed to run in, um, or whatever you want to do to use them as to let you know what this automation is, maybe what it's doing, who it's for, things like that. In this example, what I'm doing, I have two automations here and one of them is always supposed to run before the other, because this one populates a Google sheet with a bunch of, listings that I want to scrape.

Then this one loops over every item in that Google sheet to get the extra details for it. So as an example of managing the tags, what I can do is, is I can click into my workspace on the left over here and then hover over any automation, click add tag and title this whatever I want. In this case, I'm going to title it first because this should run first.

And then I'll click save. Then on my next automation, I can click add tag again, and I'll title this one second, just again, that place to remind myself, you'll see that other use tags will show up here as suggested tags in case you don't have a case you don't remember, and you just want to quick use something from before you can just do that then to remove a tag or edit it, we can click here and read the tag with any other color that we want or any title.
