Managing Queue Tags

Tag Management

A tag is a key-value pair that you can customize to identify cloud resources. It helps you to classify and search for cloud resources. A tag consists of a tag key and a tag value.

If you use tags in other cloud services, you are advised to create the same tag (key-value pairs) for cloud resources used by the same business to keep consistency.

DLI supports the following two types of tags:

• Resource tags: non-global tags created on DLI

• Predefined tags: global tags created on Tag Management Service (TMS).

  For more information about predefined tags, see Tag Management Service User Guide.

DLI allows you to add, modify, or delete tags for queues.

1. In the navigation pane of the DLI management console, choose Resources > Queue Management.
2. In the Operation column of the queue, choose More > Tags.
3. The tag management page is displayed, showing the tag information about the current queue.
4. Click Add/Edit Tag to switch to the Add/Edit Tag dialog box. Enter a tag and a value, and click Add.
