# Use Keyword Groups

Keyword groups help you manage keywords by grouping them into categories.

You can include the same keyword in multiple keyword groups.

You cannot directly add keyword groups to other keyword groups, although you can add the underlying keywords of one group to that of another.

## Create a keyword group

To create a keyword group:

1. Go to **Settings > Data Settings > Keywords > Keyword Groups**.
2. Select **Add Keyword Group**.
3. Enter a name for the group.
4. Select **Create**.

6sense lists the newly created group in the keyword groups list. (If you cannot immediately locate it, try selecting the last page of the keyword list, or adjust the list filters.)

### Keyword group availability in filters

After you create a new keyword group (through any method), the new group is available for use in a filter after 24 hours.

## Rename a keyword group

To rename a keyword group:

1. Go to **Settings > Data Settings > Keywords > Keyword Groups**.
2. For the relevant keyword group in the list, use the **Actions** menu (the three dots) to select **Rename.**
3. Enter the new name.
4. Select **Rename**.

## Delete a keyword group

To delete a keyword group:

1. Go to **Settings > Data Settings > Keywords > Keyword Groups**.
2. For the relevant keyword group in the list, use the **Actions** menu (the three dots) to select **Delete.**
3. Confirm that you want to delete the group.

## Add keywords to a keyword group

Keywords can be included in more than one keyword group. Adding a keyword to a keyword group adds that keyword without affecting the keyword groups to which the keyword is already assigned.

To add a keyword to a keyword group:

1. Go to **Settings > Data Settings > Keywords > 6sense Intent Keywords**.
2. For the relevant keyword in the list, use the actions icon (the three dots) to select **Add to…** either **New Group** or **Existing Group.**
3. Select the keyword group to which you want to add the keyword.
4. Select **Add here**.

To add multiple keywords to a keyword group:

1. Go to **Settings > Data Settings > Keywords > 6sense Intent Keywords**.
2. For each relevant keyword, select its checkbox.
3. From the **Take Action** menu at the right, select **Add to…** and either **New Group** or **Existing Group**.

### Add multiple existing keywords to a keyword group

To add multiple existing keywords to a keyword group using a list:

1. Go to **Settings > Data Settings > Keywords > Keywords Groups**.
2. Select **Add Existing Keywords**. A popup opens.
3. Enter the existing keywords you want to add to the group, each on a separate line.
4. Locate and select an existing keyword group or create a new keyword group.
5. Select **Add Keywords to groups**.

> [!NOTE]
> If you add new keywords as well as existing keywords, a message explains that you need to add new keywords using **Add Keywords** on the 6sense **Intent Keywords** tab, rather than using the **Add Existing Keywords** button in the Keyword Groups tab.

### Move keywords to a keyword group

Moving a keyword to a keyword group removes that keyword from its previous keyword groups and adds it to a different keyword group.

To move a keyword to a keyword group:

1. Go to **Settings > Data Settings > Keywords**
2. For the relevant keyword in the list, c either **Move to… > New Group** or **Existing Group.** A popup opens.
3. Select the product group to which you want to add the keyword.
4. Select **Move here**.

To move multiple keywords to a keyword group:

1. Go to **Settings > Data Settings > Keywords**
2. For each relevant keyword, select its checkbox.
3. From the **Take Action** menu at the right, select either **Move to… > New Group** or **Existing Group.** A popup opens.

A popup opens.
4. Select the product group to which you want to add the keyword.
5. Select **Move here**.

### Remove keywords from a keyword group

Removing a keyword from a keyword group simply removes that keyword from its keyword group.

To remove one keyword from a keyword group:

1. Go to **Settings > Data Settings > Keywords > Keyword Groups.**
2. Select the product group. The group’s details page opens, listing all the keywords in the group.
3. For the relevant keyword, use the **Actions** menu (the three dots) to select **Remove from this group.** A popup opens and prompts you to confirm that you want to remove the keyword from the group.
4. Select **OK**.
