A method and a content management system (CMS) that enable storage and retrieval of structured content are disclosed. In one example, CMS includes means for configuring a content project. The content project includes a content model, and the content model defines a plurality of content types for the content project. The CMS includes a plurality of content entries defined according to the content types. Each content entry is structured in accordance with a given content type from which the content entry is defined. Multiple content entries are defined from a given content type. The CMS includes at least one tag configured to be set in association with any of the plurality of content entries. The method includes means for exposing a content delivery API (CDA) configured to enable, through a single API call to the CDA that references the tag, retrieval of the content entries across the plurality of content types that have the tag set in association therewith.
