  • Use the checkboxes to select the labels you wish to merge. Ensure you select at least two labels.

3. Initiate the Merge Process:

  • Click on the Merge button, located at the top of the label list.

4. Define the New Label:

  • A merge modal window will appear, prompting you to specify the new label name that will replace the selected labels.

  • Enter the desired name for the new merged label.

  • Additionally,on the modal window, you can add from the select list field more labels to merge.
