# Method name: getTagBySlug(slug: string, options: GetTagBySlugOptions)

# Method package: wixBlogBackend

# Method menu location: wixBlogBackend --> tags --> getTagBySlug

# Method Link: https://dev.wix.com/docs/velo/apis/wix-blog-backend/tags/get-tag-by-slug.md

# Method Description:

Gets a tag by the specified slug.


The `getTagBySlug()` function returns a Promise that resolves to a tag whose slug matches the specified slug.

The `slug` is the end of a tag's URL that refers to a specific tag. For example, if a tag's URL is `https://example.com/blog/tag/{my-tag-slug}`, the slug is `my-tag-slug`. The slug is case-sensitive and derived from the tag's `label`.



# Method Code Examples:

*** Note: do not assume any prop names or enum values other than the ones in the example.

## Get a tag by its slug

```javascript
import { tags } from 'wix-blog-backend';

/* Sample slug value:

 */

export async function getTagBySlugFunction(slug) {
  try {
    const result = await tags.getTagBySlug(slug);
    const label = result.tag.label;
    const postCount = result.tag.postCount;
    console.log('Retrieved result:', result);
    return result;
  } catch (error) {
    console.error(error);
  }
}


/* Promise resolves to:
 * {
 *   "tag": {
 *     "_createdDate": "2022-05-03T10:10:49.499Z",

  try {
    const result = await tags.getTagBySlug(slug, options);
    const label = result.tag.label;
    const postCount = result.tag.postCount;
    const url = result.tag.url;
    console.log('Retrieved result:', result);
    return result;
