Tags
Add custom tags to your flows and folders, making them easy to find and group by search.

Search By Tags
Use the search bar at the top of the flows page to find all flows and folders with the same tag.
Note: Searching by tags is case sensitive and will return partial matches (e.g., if you used the tag "Helpdesk", and search "Help" those Helpdesk tagged flows and folders will appear (but if you search "help" they will not appear)).
