Tagging Resources

Scenarios

You can search for predefined tags and tags on cloud service resources based on filter criteria, and apply them to other cloud resources, enabling tag reuse across resources and regions. When business growth or changes require tagging new resources, you can use this function to quickly locate existing tags and apply them to the target resources.

On the TMS console, you can search for all tags in a specified region, including predefined tags and tags that have been associated with cloud resources. Select the tags you want to reuse and call the cloud service API to add them to the specified cloud resources. Multiple cloud resources can be associated with a tag in batches.

Constraints

A maximum of 500 cloud resources can be associated with a tag at a time.
