Organizing Devices with Tags
A Tag is a key/value pair that is applied to a device to trigger a cloud action from multiple device streams. Device tags are automatically added by Octave in the metadata of device-generated events.
For example, Tags can assist with mass deployment and permissioning (e.g., to apply a Blueprint to all devices tagged with a given name/value pair).
The following steps describe how to create a Tag:
- Navigate to Device > Details.
- Navigate to Identity.
- Select a key and value from the Category and Value dropdowns.
- Click Add Tag to add the tag to the device.
- (Optional) Repeat the steps above for additional tags.
The following steps describe how to remove a tag:
- Navigate to Device > Details.
- Navigate to Identity.
- Locate the Tag to remove and click the X button on that Tag.
