With application tagging, if you have many applications in your Cloud Platform interface, you can better organize and manage those applications by adding custom tags to each application individually, or in bulk. Cloud Platform allows you to manage applications’ tags both through the Cloud Platform user interface or with the Cloud Platform API.
Tagging your applications enables them to be filtered by tag in the Cloud Platform user interface (displaying only the applications in which you are interested), and lets you run reports based on custom criteria. Applications can have more than one tag, and in those cases, Cloud Platform displays tags sorted alphanumerically. For example: 1Tag, TAg, Tag1, and tag.
Application tagging is available for all Cloud Platform subscription levels. However, only users with Administrator and Team Lead roles have permissions to add and remove individual tags in the Cloud Platform user interface. Only users with Owner or Administrator roles may add or remove tags in bulk.
For a complete list of permissions assigned to each Cloud Platform user role, see Default Cloud Platform user permissions.
Application tags are shared for use with any application in a single organization. Based on all tags being shared in this manner, Cloud Platform doesn’t support private or personal tags for applications. Tags can’t be shared between organizations.
Regardless of their creation method, application tags created for Cloud Platform don’t display in the Site Factory interface.
For information on bulk adding application tags to many applications, see Bulk adding tags to many applications.
To add a single tag to an application:
Applications page: Click the plus icon ( + ) in the card of the application you want to tag.
Environments page: Click the plus icon ( + ) at the top of the page.
Select a color for your tag.
Cloud Platform will add a tag to your application with the label and color you selected. You can now filter for this tag on the Applications page.
You can add tags, one at a time, to applications in your organization. You can’t, however, apply a tag to multiple applications simultaneously in the Cloud Platform user interface; however, an Cloud Platform API endpoint is available that supports tagging multiple applications simultaneously.
You cannot change an application tag after creating it. To change a tag, you must remove the tag from all applications to delete the application tag from Cloud Platform, and then recreate the tag with your required changes.
Application tag label names must meet the following requirements:
Cloud Platform_ ) and dashes ( - ).example and EXAMPLE are distinct tags.EXAMPLE tag, you can’t create a red EXAMPLE tag.To remove a tag from an application:
Point to the tag you want to remove. Cloud Platform will display an X icon.
X icon, and then click Confirm to remove the tag.Cloud Platform removes the tag from this application. If the tag you removed isn’t associated with any other application, Cloud Platform will permanently delete the tag.
Acquia cannot restore application tags that have been deleted.
After your applications have been tagged, you can filter based on tag labels by appending a hashtag (#) to the tag label in the existing input filter on the Applications page. To do this:
On the Applications page, locate the Filter applications field in the top left of the page.
