Assigning Contact owners in Contact Tags

To assign contacts by User,
Select the tag or tags you want to use to assign contact owners.
A pop-up will appear. In the Users tab, click the drop-down arrow and select the user you want to assign the leads to.
Note that by default, this only applies to unassigned contacts. Enabling this option will also assign already assigned contacts to the selected user.
Click the Assign button.
To assign tagged leads in bulk,

Click the Assign Contacts button.

To assign contacts by Ring Group,
Select the tags you want to use to assign contact owners.
In the Ring Group section, click the drop-down arrow and select the desired Ring Group to assign the leads to.
Similar to the previous options, the default behavior is to assign unassigned contacts. Enabling an option will also assign already assigned contacts to the ring group members.
Then, click the Assign button.
