Hi all,

We have a requiredment to enable the tagging of data in Kibana of interest or not.

For example, our solution presents a bunch of social media posts it has collected and a user can select a check box or similar next to the post to define whether it is of interest or not.

We currently display these posts using a saved search built from the Discover page.

Just wondering if anyone knows of a plugin that would allow us to do this?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers.

I am not aware of any plugin that would support this, and could not find one searching. I did find this previous discuss question: [User input to tag document](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/user-input-to-tag-document/117473/2)

If that user did not already do so, you might consider opening an enhancement request in the Github Kibana repo for this feature. If there is already one, you could +1 it and add comments.

Thanks Bill.

Doesn't look like what was discussed panned out yet in terms of a feature.

It looks as though one user developed a private plugin so I may reach out to him.

Cheers,  
Eric
