How do I add many tags to a Confluence Database in bulk?

Chris Jacks_g8m48r

I am creating a Confluence Database that will have a field named "Product". Field type is "Tag".

I have a notepad file with a list of 100 or so products, each on a new line.

How can I get this list of products created as tags without having to copy+paste one at a time?

HI @Chris Jacks and welcome to the Community

You can import a CSV to a specific column of the database (three dots menu next to the Database Search field) - click Import and follow the instructions. You just need to copy paste your notepad entries into a spreadsheet (or into a text editor and then convert text to table).

Or you can copy paste a column from a spreadsheet editor into a database column.

HOWEVER... I only got it working with Text, not with Tag. And sadly, conversion doesn't work.

Having said that, there might be a workaround, I found a couple solving different issues, more on that in my article here).

I'm sharing the above hoping that it might take you the right track.
