# Tags & Filtering

## Filtering

You can easily use the global filter to view all reports below it with only certain targets. You can filter by selecting specific targets, domains, or tags.

## Tags

Tags can be used to categorize targets. This can be useful for grouping assets based on their functionality, such as web servers or workstations, or other specific needs you may have.

### Manual Tags

You can apply tags to targets individually on the individual target's settings page or in bulk on the Targets→List page.

### Automatic Tags with Automations

You can easily apply rules to group targets using automations. This allows you to create a set of conditions where tags will be added, removed, or synchronized based on certain criteria, such as a target's risk rating increasing to a particular level, or a target having a specific port open.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.halosecurity.com/docs/platform/targets/tags-and-filtering.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
