Tag from cli or search?

Is it possible to auto-tag a field from the results of a search from the cli or the search bar? Something like:

"search color=scarlet OR color=crimson | tag tag::color=red"

Hi,

It's not possible to do it automatically you can do it through the Splunk Web interface:

Also if you are running 4.3 you can do some dynamic tagging from the event viewer data:

Thanks,

Kate
