# Unable to Add a Tag to Content

## Issue

Despite a Tag being available for your account, you are unable to add the Tag while adding it to a Flow. ![unable_to_add_tags.png](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/unable_to_add_tags.png)

## Probable Cause

The Tag to be added may be a Global Page Tag, which enables content to be present throughout the application in Self Help. Because the Tag falls under the Auto Tag category, you cannot manually add it to a Flow or any other in-app content created using Studio. Such Tags get attached to the Flow steps automatically when you create them on the application. For more information, see [What are Tags?](/studio/docs/what-are-tags)

          Note:

          

If your account has multiple Global tags, select the one with the highest value. For example, if the tags in your account are Global-Page, Global-Page_1, and Global-Page_2, content should be tagged with Global-Page_2. For more information on viewing the Global tags available in your account, see [How can I view the Global tags created in my account?](/studio/docs/how-can-i-view-the-global-tags-created-in-my-account)

## Suggested Solution

To add an Auto Tag to a Flow, you must add the first step of your Flow to any global element present in the application. Creating a step on one of these elements ensures that the Global Page Tag gets automatically added to your Flow. For more information, see [Add Tags to content](/studio/docs/add-tags-to-content).

Smart Context needs to be enabled in your account to automatically add an Auto Tag to a Flow. To configure Smart Context in your account, contact [support@whatfix.com](mailto:support@whatfix.com?subject=Enable%20Smart%20Context&body=Hi%20team%2C%0A%0AKindly%20enable%20Smart%20Context%20in%20my%20account.%0AENT%20ID%3A%0A%0AThanks%20and%20Regards%2C).

A global element is visible throughout your application, irrespective of the page the user is on.
