Tag Devices

Tags enable you to create sets of devices that belong to different JFrog Connect groups. You can then filter and perform actions on tagged devices. This page describes how to create and manage tags.

A tag is a parameter you define to identify devices with unique attributes. Tags provide one of several ways that you can manage your fleet JFrog Connect. For example, tags enable you to associate devices that belong to different groups within a project.

You can use tags to mark one or more devices within a group or mark devices that belong to different groups. Once you have tagged some devices, you can filter on the tag name in order to view and perform actions on the tagged devices only.

Connect provides a high degree of flexibility in tagging. There is no limit to the number of tags you can create or the number of tags a device can have. In addition, Connect enables you to tag several devices at once, without limit.

Create Tags and Tag the Devices

To tag one or multiple devices, do the following:

  1. Go to the Devices page and create a filter that will display all the devices you want to tag. For example, if you want to tag some devices from Group A, a device from Group B, and several devices from Group C, ensure that all of these groups will be displayed. You can use any of the filter criteria available to create a display that is most useful for marking the devices.

  1. On the left side of the Devices table, mark the checkboxes next to the devices that will be tagged. You can use the checkbox at the top of the column to mark all or unmark all of the devices.

  1. Click Edit Tags.

  1. In Add Tags, enter the name of one or more tags. If a tag already exists, you can enter the first few letters and then choose the name that appears in the list. Apply your changes.

Remove a Tag

To remove a tag from one or more devices, do the following:

  1. In the Devices page, mark the checkboxes next to the relevant devices. You can use the checkbox at the top of the column to mark all or unmark all of the devices.

  1. Click Edit Tags.

  1. In Remove Tags, choose one or more tags to remove from the devices you chose. If you don’t see the tag in the list, enter the first few letters of the tag name and then it should appear. Apply your changes.

Delete a Tag

To delete a tag entirely, remove the tag from all devices with that tag. Once the tag is removed from the last device, it is deleted from the database.
