How to Use Internal Tags

Tag your songs, recordings, and releases with data that is only visible internally to you and your team.

Introducing a new feature in Songspace that will help you manage your metadata better - Internal Tags!

We heard from you time and time again - "We want to be able to choose if a tag can be seen publicly. Some tags are just for us and some of our tags are for our share links, pitches, and projects are dynamic for clients." Ask and you shall receive!

Internal Tags and (Public) Tags

Now you can decide if a tag is Internal or Public:

  • Use Internal Tags to manage tag data for internal use only.

  • Use Tags for searchable, public tag data that appears on the links you send out.

For example,

  • I want to create an internal tag that will allow me to search for songs where my publishing company is the 100% owner. I will create an Internal Tag called "Publishing All In." This tag should not be visible to clients but can be used by my team to pull song, recording, or pitch lists and reports that we need.

  • When I pitch a song to a supervisor looking for upbeat songs, I will tag my song with "Upbeat" - so when they’re reviewing my pitch they’ll quickly be able to find exactly what they need.

Housekeeping

Any tags that were added to Songs or Recordings before August 1st, 2021 were migrated to the Internal Tag field for you as we did not want to assume what was public vs. private.

Tags that were added to Releases remain listed as Tags and will be public as this functionality existed for releases prior to introducing the new Internal Tag field.

Moving forward, anything listed in the Tag field will be visible on share links and tracked pitches like below:
