Labels in Zoho WorkDrive

Organize files using labels

Labels help you group and find files and folders without moving them from their current location. You can tag items from different folders and view them together in the Labels tab, based on your preferred categories like priority or task type. 

Notes
Note: Labels are private and visible only to you. Even if a file is shared, your labels remain hidden from other collaborators.

Now, let's get started with how to create labels, add them to files and folders, and manage or update them as needed.

  1. Go to the Labels tab in the left panel of your WorkDrive. Labels section opens, where you can view and manage your labels.



  2. Click Manage Labels in the top-right corner. 



  3. Enter a label name at the bottom bar. 
  4. Choose a color (optional) to visually distinguish the label.
  5. Click Create.


Your label will now appear in the Labels list, ready to be used. You can start adding files and folders to this label for quick access.
