Managing RabbitMQ Instance Tags

Tags facilitate RabbitMQ instance identification and management.

You can add tags to a RabbitMQ instance when creating the instance or add tags on the details page of the created instance. Up to 20 tags can be added to an instance. Tags can be deleted.

A tag consists of a tag key and a tag value. Table 1 lists the tag key and value requirements.
