Service resource labels

Most Yandex Cloud services support resource labeling.

A label is a key-value pair in <label_name>=<label_value> format. You can use labels to break resources into logical groups.

Labels are subject to the following limitations:

• Maximum number of labels per resource: 64.
• The key:
  • Must be from 1 to 63 characters long.
  • May contain lowercase Latin letters, numbers, hyphens, and underscores.
  • Use a letter for the first character.
• The value:
  • May be up to 63 characters long.
  • May contain lowercase Latin letters, numbers, hyphens, and underscores.

Label usage examplesLabel usage examples

• Viewing service usage details by labels.

  For example, you can view the DataSphere spending details.

• Searching for resources belonging to the same project, owner, environment, etc.

  For example, you can use the project:app label to find the Yandex Cloud resources used in the app project.

• Grouping resources by various criteria, such as project, team, environment, application, etc.

  For example, you can use the environment:production and environment:test labels to mark Yandex Cloud resources as belonging to the production and test environments.

• Automating actions with a resource group, such as launching, stopping, or deleting the labeled resources.

  For example, you can manage a resource group using Yandex Cloud Functions.
