Flags

Flags are customizable markers that can be placed onto KB articles, assets, passwords, processes, networks, VLANs, VLAN zones, racks, and companies within your Hudu environment and serve to assist in the improvement of your documentation quality.

You can create an unlimited number of flags, as well as flags can be named anything you like and color-coded to further identify or separate per unique function/priority.

The Flags tab in your Hudu admin area allows for the creation and management of these custom markers or “flags”.

Creating Flags

Navigate to your Hudu admin.
Click into Flags >> New Flag (top right-hand side).
Give your flag a name and choose a color to designate the flag.
Click Create Flag.

Managing Flags

The Flags page displays each flag as a card showing the flag's name and color. From here, you can search, sort, edit, and delete your flags.

Editing a flag

Hover over a flag card and click the Edit icon. Update the name or color, then save your changes.

Deleting a flag

Hover over a flag card and click the Permanent delete icon, then confirm the deletion.

Deleting multiple flags

Select the checkbox on each flag card you'd like to remove. A bulk action toolbar will appear at the bottom of the page. Click Permanent delete in the toolbar and confirm.

Sorting flags

Use the sort menu to order your flag cards by name A–Z (default), name Z–A, newest, oldest, or recently modified.

Searching flags

Use the search bar at the top of the page to find a flag by name. Use the pagination controls at the bottom of the page to move between pages.

Deleting a flag is permanent and cannot be undone.

Assigning Flags

In order to Flag an item within your environment, you’ll need to have a spectator role or above in Hudu.

Navigate to the item you'd like to flag, such as a KB article, asset, password, or process.
Click the Flag Icon in the top right.
This will open a modal where you can select which Flag Type you’d like to assign, as well as provide notes/reasoning for the flag.
Select Flag to mark the item with the flag.
- Your item will now be flagged, and the flag is shown to all users (except on External Portals).

To edit or remove a flag that's already on an item, click the flag while viewing that item.
