Can you exclude Cards with a specific tag in search?
Best answer by Marie Frei
Hi
First, if you’re not an admin, you’ll obtain API credentials from a Guru admin. The results of your requests made with your token will be based on your permissions in Guru, so your results will be specific to the Collections/Cards and user role that you have access to. See more on the differences between the two token types - user and collection - here.
The most effective way to filter out Cards with a specific tag is by using the JSON query. In Card Manager, there’s a “Tags” filter for “has tag” and “does not have tag”. Filter the Cards you have access to by “does not have tag” and type the tag into the text box. Apply any other relevant filters to your list of Cards. Then, locate the “Copy filters as JSON” at the top of the Filter by Attribute column.

When searching for Cards using the search bar in the web app or extension, or when searching in Slack or Teams, there’s unfortunately no way to omit Cards from the results based on a certain tag. This is an example of Product Feedback to log. As a workaround, if the user is an author or Collection owner, they’ll see Card Manager and can use the filters to narrow down Cards without a specific tag.
