The Layer2 Auto Tagger for SharePoint completely
automatically classifies Microsoft SharePoint list items
and documents in background by assigning taxonomybased managed metadata organized in the SharePoint
Term Store. By default SharePoint offers a manual

documents quicker and more efficently.

Helps to navigate SharePoint lists and libraries with
more that 5.000 items.

Increased productivity and precision while bulktagging SharePoint items and documents
automatically using a robust multi-level autoclassification system, based on given taxonomies.

Could be helpful for initial tagging, e.g. after content
migration from any system to SharePoint, as well as
for daily background operation.
•
The taxonomy entry point (root node) is chosen
automatically with respect to the current managed
meta data column settings.
•
List items are processed as well as documents and
files located in SharePoint libraries.

Installed IFilters are used for document content
analysis, e.g. for Word, Excel, PowerPoint, PDF and
many more.

is in document content while another term is not).
High quality of subject classification using a high
performance Microsoft .NET Framework based rule
engine.

100% SharePoint technology: The solution is
