Tag Manager

The Tag Manager lets admins manage tags associated with assets in your Catalog instance. It ties into the Tagging and Classification overview: User tags are Catalog-managed, External tags are imported from sources, and Catalog tags are auto-added by Catalog.

Accessing Tag Manager​

To access the Tag Manager, follow these steps:

  1. Log in to your Catalog admin account.
  2. Navigate to the "Governance" page.
  3. Go to the "Tag Manager" tab.

Or open Tag Manager in Governance.

  • External tag: Imported from your sources (warehouses, BI tools)
