Custom source labels help you group the sources in your workspace by brand, product line, market, or another category. Once you tag sources, you can use that custom field to narrow the Sources list, Content, and Reports.
š Availability: This feature appears only in workspaces where custom source labels are enabled.
Source labels are different from Creator Labels. They organize your sources. When you filter Content or Reports by a source label, Archive returns content captured by sources with the selected values.

Select Sources.
Click Add column.
Enter a column name using 1 to 30 characters. The suggested name is Brand, but you can use a name that matches how your team organizes sources.
