Tags

Tags provide a method for adding metadata to resources. They are typically opaque to LOKE and serve to include additional information that can be utilized by add-ons or integrations.

Machine Tags

While tags can be any string, we recommend using machine tags for transmitting richer data. Machine tags follow a convention that combines a namespace with a key-value pair format.

The structure of a machine tag is: namespace:key=value

For example: myintegration:voucher=coffee10

The namespace helps prevent collisions between different integrations. Resources that support tagging can have simple key-value pairs set in this manner.
