Assign tags to multiple resources

The Assign Tags wizard lets you assign up to 10 tags to multiple resources of the same type in a single action.

Before you begin

  • You have at least 1 tag in the catalog. If you do not, see Create a tag.

📝 Note: Each Assign Tags action applies to one resource type only. If you need to tag several types, repeat the wizard for each one. K8S Cluster appears as two separate tabs: K8s Managed Cluster and K8s Dedicated Cluster.

Step 1: Open the Assign Tags wizard

There are two ways to open it:

  • From the Tagging page: click Actions ▾Assign Tags.
  • From the Resources tab: click the Assign tag link on the card for the resource type you want to tag.

The Actions button on the Tagging page

Step 2: Select resources

  1. Select the resource-type tab (VPC, Instance, Storage Disk, Subnet, Security Group, Floating IP, Load Balancer, K8s Managed Cluster, K8s Dedicated Cluster, Database Cluster).
  2. Select a VPC from the dropdown and Managed by if you need to filter further.
  3. Search resources by name if needed.
  4. Check the resources you want to tag.

Step 1 — Select resources

📝 Note: If you check a resource of a different type than the one currently selected, the current selection is reset and only the new resource is kept.

  1. Click Next ›.

Step 3: Choose tags

  1. Search tags by name if needed.
  2. Select the tags you want to assign.
  3. Check the count in the x/10 selected indicator.

Step 2 — Choose tags

📝 Note: The limit is 10 tags per action. When you reach the limit, the indicator turns red and the remaining tags are disabled.

  1. Click Next ›.

Step 4: Review and apply

  1. Review the list of tags to be assigned (the colored chips).
  2. Review the resource list in the review table.
  3. If a yellow warning banner appears (some tags overlap with tags inherited from a K8S Cluster), see Handle duplicate tags below.
  4. Click Apply.

Step 3 — Review & Apply

Result

The tags are assigned to all selected resources. The Tags column in the Instances list and the Resources tab reflect the change immediately.

Handle duplicate tags

If the wizard shows the yellow banner "Some tags are already inherited from a cluster", it means some of the resources you selected already have this tag through inheritance from a K8S Cluster.

You can still click Apply — the tag will be assigned as a direct tag alongside the inherited one. However, the resource will then have two records of the same tag.

To avoid duplicates: cancel the wizard, open the Manage tags drawer on each Instance to review the inherited tab, then select only the tags that are not yet inherited.
