Tag Management

Tag Management governs tag coverage, discovered keys, value standards, normalization, policy, and remediation.

Open Tag Management

Go to Cloud Infrastructure > Tag Management.

The page can include:

Tab Purpose
Tag Inventory Review discovered tag keys, values, and coverage.
Tag Standards Define the intended tag dictionary and accepted values.
Normalization Rules Map inconsistent keys or values to a standard.
Policies Define required or governed tagging behavior.
Tag Guard Evaluate or enforce tagging controls when enabled.
Fix Plans Review remediation work for non-compliant resources.

Improve tag quality

  1. Start with Tag Inventory and identify high-spend untagged or inconsistent resources.
  2. Define canonical keys and values in Tag Standards.
  3. Add Normalization Rules for known variants.
  4. Create or update Policies for required tags.
  5. Review Tag Guard findings before enforcement.
  6. Use Fix Plans to coordinate remediation.

Best practices

  • Standardize a small set of business-critical tags first.
  • Avoid normalization rules that merge genuinely different meanings.
  • Test policies on non-production scopes before enforcement.
  • Coordinate fixes with resource owners; tags can affect allocation, access, budgets, and reports.

Tag Guard OAuth callbacks and some remediation actions are only available when the relevant integration is enabled.
