What is a hashtag?

Hashtags are used to categorize posts and comments using keywords or topics, making them easier to find. The keyword entered as a hashtag is displayed as a link, highlighted in color. If a user clicks the hashtag, all post and comments subsequently entered are displayed on a separate page. A hashtag can be saved as a filter. You can then use the same hashtag in the filter definition, for example, #BPM.

A hashtag consists of the # character followed by a keyword or phrase. There is no space after the # and the phrase does not contain any punctuation marks.

Examples

#BPM

#Optimize your processes using social collaboration
