Tags

Tags make posts more social by allowing central topics of discussion. Only one tag is allowed per post, so the first valid tag included in a post of any type (image, video) via the API is treated as the tag for that post.

Information to keep in mind when adding a tag to a post:

  • Valid tags start with a hash sign (#).

  • Periods (.), ampersands (&), and spaces are not allowed in tags, so any tag that starts with a hash sign will end just before the period, ampersand, or blank space.

  • The text is also configured in the app without the hash sign.
