You can create and apply tags to entities in the Metallic console.
A tag is a pair of a key and an optional value. You can use tags to categorize resources, which makes searching easier. You can assign a tag to any Metallic entity.
For example, by applying a tag called location with a value of headquarters to all servers located in the company headquarters you can get a list of all servers located in the company headquarters using REST APIs.
