When you import a new asset, its tags are also imported to the target project. When you overwrite existing assets in the target project, you can choose to merge tags. When you merge tags, after import, both export and target project tags are assigned to the asset.

You can choose to merge tags for all assets or for some assets in the export file. You can only merge tags when you overwrite existing assets in the target project.

If you choose to merge tags and the asset in the export file does not have tags but the asset in the target project does, after import, the asset will retain tags from the target project. To remove the target project tags, navigate to the asset on the

Explore

page and remove the tags.
