Any user with 'view' permission can add a personal label. Personal labels are only available to the user that created them. To differentiate them from global labels, personal labels include the prefix "my:" in the label name.

Here are some examples of personal labels:

"my:sales", "my:stuff", "my:trivia"

To add a personal label,

  1. Go to the 'view' mode of the page.

  2. Click on the 'Edit' link beside 'Labels'. This link is highlighted in yellow. This will open up a form with an input field and a list of 'suggested labels'.

  3. Check if you want to use any of the suggested labels; these are a list of labels you've used recently, and the most popular labels in the space. Your personal labels will also appear here if you have used them frequently or recently. Clicking on a label will add the label to the page.

    If you want to add a new label, simply type it in using the markup "my:label" and click 'Done' to add the label.



Labels are always in lowercase. Even if you use uppercase characters, Confluence will convert these to lowercase when it adds the label.
