Drop the action Tag ajouté / supprimé into your workflow and pick the tag to apply (or remove). The action runs against the contact currently flowing through the automation. It is free — no credit is consumed — and it is the most reusable building block in Mailpro, because tags can themselves trigger other automations.

Key takeaway: Auto-add a tag at the end of a step to mark a contact as "processed". Then build a separate workflow that reacts to that tag.

How it works in the builder

Add the AddTag action anywhere in your flow. It takes a single parameter: the tag name. If the tag does not exist yet, Mailpro creates it on the fly. The action runs synchronously — the tag is on the contact before the next step starts — so you can chain "AddTag → SendMail" knowing the tag is already in place.

The classic chaining pattern

One workflow tags contacts as a side effect of doing its job; another workflow uses that tag as a trigger. Example: workflow A sends a welcome email and ends with AddTag welcomed. Workflow B is triggered by the tag welcomed and starts a 7-day nurture sequence. This is how you compose multi-stage automations without nesting everything into one giant workflow.

Removing a tag

The same action handles tag removal. Use it to mark "done" states clearly: AddTag renewed after a successful renewal, then RemoveTag renewal-needed. Keeps your tag set clean and makes segment queries reliable.

Treat tags as your workflow currency

Build your tag vocabulary, then chain workflows with it. Refresh on contact tags and how to use tags if needed.
