how to create an alias for a specific tag

I tagged all my current project folders with a specific tag, and I used to have an alias that would show in a single folder all items tagged with that specific tag. I kept the alias on the dock to quickly access the current project folders.

I accidentally deleted my alias, and I am not able to recreate it. I honestly don't remember how I made it.

I had created this alias long ago, I am not sure if the alias of a tag is still supported in OS Ventura?

I googled the issue for a while with no success.


easy solutions don't seem to work:

dragging and dropping the tag to the desktop results in an error 8060..

there is no option to create an alias for a tag in the file menu.

any idea?

thanks

Click on All Tags and drag the desired tag into the Tags section of the Sidebar.

Or, create a Smart Folder and use that Tag as the criteria.
