Tags

The Tags configuration allows you to define flexible categorization and filtering criteria used throughout Integration Cockpit for organizing interfaces by business domain, risk level, technology stack or deployment characteristics.

Purpose: Define tag categories and values for flexible interface classification, enabling business-aligned filtering, reporting segmentation and dashboard organization across all Integration Cockpit modules.

Navigate to Settings → Configuration → Tags to manage your tag category definitions and values.

For detailed guidance on tag configuration, see 2.1.2 Tags in the Onboarding Guide.

Tag Usage Throughout Integration Cockpit

Tag definitions are used across Integration Cockpit for:

Interface Classification → Apply tags during interface enrichment and To-do workflows
Dashboard Inventory → Display interface counts filtered by tag categories and values
Reporting Filters → Filter views by tag combinations (Domain + Criticality, etc.)
Catalog Organization → Group and search interfaces using tag-based criteria
End-to-End Integrations → Tag complete integration flows for business alignment
Transformation Rules → Apply tags automatically during data source processing

Best practice: Start with the core three tag categories (Domain, Criticality, Brand/Division) to establish business alignment. Add optional tags only when they represent meaningful classification criteria that support your integration governance workflows.

Tag Configuration Requirements

Tags must be configured before they can be used in:

Dashboard Inventory panels (see Settings → Configuration → Dashboard → Inventory)
To-do enrichment workflows (see Settings → Configuration → To-do → Tags)
Interface catalog filtering and search operations
Reporting and analytics dashboards
