Tagging a Snapshot

Manage tags for a File Storage snapshot.

Apply tags to resources to help organize them according to your business needs. You can apply tags when you create a resource, and you can update a resource later to add, revise, or remove tags. For general information about applying tags, see Resource Tags.

    1. On the File Systems list page, select the file system that contains the snapshot that you want to work with. If you need help finding the list page or the file system, see Listing File Systems.
    2. On the details page, select Snapshots.
    3. In the Snapshots list, select the snapshot that you're interested in.
    4. On the snapshot's details page, select the Tags tab to view or edit the existing tags.
    5. Select Add tags to add new tags.

  • Use the fs snapshot update command and include the optional parameters --defined-tags and --freeform-tags to manage a snapshot's tags:

    oci fs snapshot update --snapshot-id <snapshot_OCID> --defined-tags <defined_tags> --freeform-tags <freeform_tags>

    For a complete list of parameters and values for CLI commands, see the CLI Command Reference.

  • Run the UpdateSnapshot operation to manage a snapshot's tags.
