# Tags

A **tag** classifies resources such as assets so they can be searched and
filtered more easily. Each tag combines a **name** and a **value** and can have a
color. Names may repeat, and a single resource can carry several tags.

Open the page from **Console > Tags**.

## Overview

The list columns are Name, Value, Color, Resources, Creation date, and Actions.
The **Resources** column is the number of resources currently bound to the tag.
The toolbar provides search, column settings, export, import, and refresh.
**More actions** offers **Delete selected** only.

Tags are scoped to the current organization. They are often used to record the
department, owner, environment, or purpose of a resource.

## Create a tag


1

Click **Create**.

2

In the **Create tag** drawer, fill in the fields below.

### Field reference

| Field   | Description                                                    |
| ------- | -------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Name    | Required. The tag category, for example Department or Purpose. |
| Value   | Required. The specific content within that category.           |
| Color   | Swatch used in lists so tags can be told apart at a glance.    |
| Comment | Optional.                                                      |

## Attach tags to resources

There are three ways to bind a tag:

1. **From the tag**: click the number in the **Resources** column to open
   **Associate resources** and review what is already bound. You can add more or
   remove existing bindings from that dialog.
2. **From the row menu**: click **...** and choose **Associate resources**, select
   a **Resource type**, move resources from the left list to the right, and click
   **Confirm**. No resources are selectable until a resource type is chosen.
3. **From the asset**: select tags in **Other settings** while creating an asset,
   or add them from the **Tags** area on the asset's **Basic** tab in
   [Assets](https://www.jumpserver.com/docs/features/console/assets/index.md).

## Edit, duplicate, and delete

The Actions column provides:

- **Edit**: open **Update tag**. Fields are the same as for creation.
- **Duplicate**: copy the tag as a new one.
- **Associate resources**: bind or unbind resources.
- **Delete**: remove the tag.

Select several tags and use **More actions > Delete selected** to delete them in a
batch.


Note

Deleting a tag removes it from every resource that carried it, but the resources
themselves are not deleted. Tags are not used for access control; use
[Authorizations](https://www.jumpserver.com/docs/features/console/policies/authorizations.md) for that.
