Label Manager for Confluence includes three different bulk operations: add, change, and remove. Each operation follows the same workflow.
3.1 The Three Operations
|
Operation |
What it does |
Best used for |
|---|---|---|
|
Add Bulk Labels |
Applies one or more labels to selected pages. Existing labels are preserved. |
Tagging new content; applying baseline labels across a space. |
|
Replace Bulk Labels |
Replace an existing label with a new one by removing the old label and applying the new. |
Renaming labels; restructuring a content taxonomy. |
|
Remove Bulk Labels |
Remove specific labels from selected pages without affecting others. |
Cleaning up deprecated or incorrectly applied tags. |
All three operations are available for pages, blog posts, and live docs (Page Label Operations) and file attachments (Attachment Label Operations).
Permissions: The app only modifies content you have edit access to. Pages outside your permissions are automatically skipped and reported in the post-run summary.
3.2 The Four-Step Wizard
Every operation follows the same four-step flow. Completed steps are marked with a green checkmark in the left-hand progress sidebar.

Content types such as folder, whiteboard, database, slides, and smart link lack field labels, so we skipped these items.
