Tags

Tags are a very common yet powerful way to identify and group your assets together.

You can create different type of tags, (by using the semicolon symbol eg tag_type:tag_name), for example:

• domain (and subdomain) tags - to identify the assets used by a given domain (or what domains are making use of a given asset)

• data classification tags - to highlight where PII or confidential information is stored

• deployment stage tags - to highlight things that are in dev prod, uat

etc.

How to Use

• To create a tag simply click the ⊕ sign next to tags, type your tag and select create a new tag button

• Alternatively, admins and data stewards can create and manage tags direclty in the Tag manager tab in the Governance section

Tips:

• For the purpose of grouping and identifying knowledge / documentation, we recommend creating domain tags (see Knowledge pages): a tag for the first level in your domain hierarchy.

• Use the domain tags to mark those assets that are being used by a given domain. (💡 An asset can have, and most likely will have, more than one domain tags)

• Similarly you can create team tags or data product tags. (💡 Try not to have more than 30 tags per tag type - that will make it difficult for the users using them to remember the values they would have to use.)
