Autotagging your images

November 14, 2023

Autotagging is a service provided by Amazon Rekognition that uses machine learning to identify objects in your images. Jahia then applies the tags to your images. Depending on how your site has been configured, images are automatically tagged when you add them to your site. Alternatively, you apply autotagging to individual images. 

Before using autotagging feature, you need to ask a developer or system administrator to install and configure the module. For more information, see Installing and configuring Autotagging.

When autotagging is configured to tag all new images, the number of tags added to your image displays when you upload, as shown here in jContent>Media.
