# Filter and Manage Artifacts

*Filter artifacts by type, tag or label in a repository, copy a digest, add labels, and delete or scan several artifacts in one bulk action.*

Filter and Manage Artifacts
=================================
## Filtering Artifacts

You can filter artifacts in the repository using the magnifier in the top right corner of the table.

Click on it to access different filtering options.

### Filter Artifacts by Type

You can restrict the artifacts overview to a specific type by selecting one of the types in the dropdown:

### Filter Artifacts by Tags

You can display only tagged or untagged images.

### Filter Artifacts by Label

You can display only artifacts that have the same label.

You can select more than one label in this operation.

## Managing Artifacts

In the artifacts overview, a few basic operations with artifacts are available.

Every time you need to perform one of them:
* **Tick the checkbox** next to the artifact;
* Click **Actions**:

### Per-Item Actions

These kinds of actions can only be applied to one artifact at a time.

#### Copy Digest

This button will open another dialogue window where you can copy the digest to clipboard.

#### Add Labels

Labels are another way to add some short information to your artifacts to sort them later or to make them more eye-catching in the overview.

Labels must be added to the project by the project administrator as described [here](/docs/2.16/user-manual/projects/configuration/project-settings.md#labels-tab).

### Bulk Actions: Delete or Scan Artifacts

These actions can be applied to more than one artifact at a time. 


> **Note:** To scan images, you need at least the project administrator privileges.
