# Enriching Data With Tags From the MITRE ATT&CK Source

> **Deprecated.** System-generated [ATT&CK Tags](https://knowledge.threatconnect.com/docs/attack-tags) that represent techniques and sub-techniques in the MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise Matrix were added to ThreatConnect starting with version 7.2, and support for ATT&CK Tags was added to the **MITRE ATT&CK**App starting with version 2.0.3.  If you are on a ThreatConnect instance with version 7.2 or newer installed and use the MITRE ATT&CK App version 2.0.3 or newer, use system-generated ATT&CK Tags to enrich ThreatConnect objects with MITRE ATT&CK data instead of copying Tags from the **MITRE ATT&CK**Source to your Organization for enrichment purposes.

To enrich ThreatConnect® objects in your Organization with metadata created by the **MITRE ATT&CK****®** App, you must copy [Tags](/v1/docs/applying-tags) in the **MITRE ATT&CK** Source to your Organization. This process makes the Tags available for association with other objects in the Organization, allowing those objects essentially to be labeled with ATT&CK® techniques, sub-techniques, and tactics.

The **MITRE ATT&CK**Source contains a [Document Group](https://knowledge.threatconnect.com/v1/docs/the-threatconnect-data-model#group-types) named **MITRE ATT&CK**that is****associated to all Tags in the Source. Copying this Group to your Organization will also copy all**Tags in the **MITRE ATT&CK**Source, as long as you choose to create Tags that do not exist during the copying process. It is the easiest way to move ATT&CK data in ThreatConnect to your Organization for immediate use in data enrichment.

NoteIf you added MITRE ATT&CK data objects to an existing owner via a [manually created Job](/v1/docs/mitre-attack-manual-job-configuration), follow the same process described in the following section to copy the **MITRE ATT&CK** Document and all associated Tags from that owner to your Organization.

## Copying Tags From the MITRE ATT&CK Source to Your Organization

1. On the top navigation bar, hover over **Browse** and select **Document**. All Document Groups in the owners selected in the [**My Intel Sources**selector](https://knowledge.threatconnect.com/docs/the-browse-screen#my-intel-sources-selector) will be displayed on the [**Browse**screen](https://knowledge.threatconnect.com/v1/docs/the-browse-screen).

## Using Tags to Enrich Data

After you copy Tags from the **MITRE ATT&CK**Source to your Organization, you can enrich Groups and Indicators in your Organization by applying the Tags to them, which also creates [associations](https://knowledge.threatconnect.com/v1/docs/associations) to the Tags. When [applying Tags](https://knowledge.threatconnect.com/docs/applying-tags) copied from the **MITRE ATT&CK**Source, utilize the auto-complete feature to ensure that you use the proper syntax and select the correct Tag, as shown in Figure 6.
