Monica: Search by contact tag(s)

Created on 10 Apr 2019  路  4Comments  路  Source: monicahq/monica

I use Monica heavily to keep personal and business relationships clear. I would love it if were possible for me to search by tag so that I can pull a list of relevant folks (Ex. I'm going to be in New York, I'll look for who is tagged with NY who I may want to meet up with while I'm in town)

As a further feature request, being able to search with multiple tags (show me everyone with 'NY' and 'cool' tags so I can hang with cool NY people)

Hi folks, I'm a bit surprised by this one also: The site's internal requests do not match the API, so it's not possible to see whether there is an undocumented API parameter out there for searching by tag.

If I'm an API user, surely there must be some way to search or filter by tag, besides pulling the entire contact list and filtering locally?

It seems like you can list people tagged with a specific tag by, for instance, clicking on the Tag in their profile which redirects you to something like:

https://example.herokuapp.com/people?tag1=university

Then, it seems like by clicking on tags in the right sidebar you add more tags to the "filters" with AND operation.

https://example.herokuapp.com/people?tag1=uni&tag2=ctu

Let us know if it helped, otherwise it seems like what you are looking for is already there. cc @asbiin

@marekdlugos is right, it鈥檚 already possible to search for two or more tags. But I guess it would be nice to have this search feature more accessible than having to go to a particular profile and then click there on a tag to arrive at the tag search.

Hey guys, I am also starting to work with Monica and willing to help if possible with implementing tag searching. This is an important feature that surprised me that it's not already implemented. There is no use for tags if they don't contribute to search.
