Tagging enables the assignment of specific labels called tags on an instance for identification in your Vultr account. Tags consist of multiple characters that help identify, organize, and manage instances in your Vultr account.
Follow this guide to manage tags on a Vultr Bare Metal instance using the Vultr Customer Portal, API, or CLI.
Navigate to Products and click Compute.
Click your target Bare Metal instance to open its management page.
Navigate to the Tags tab.
Enter a new tag in the Add Tag field and click Add to apply the new tag.
Find and click Delete within the Existing Tags section to remove a specific tag on your instance.
Send a GET
request to the List Bare Metal Instances endpoint and note the target instance's ID.
$ curl "https://api.vultr.com/v2/bare-metals" \
-X GET \
-H "Authorization: Bearer ${VULTR_API_KEY}"
Send a PATCH
request to the Update Bare Metal Instance endpoint to add new tags to the instance.
$ curl "https://api.vultr.com/v2/bare-metals/{baremetal-id}" \
-X PATCH \
-H "Authorization: Bearer ${VULTR_API_KEY}" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
--data '{
"tags" : ["tag1", "tag2"]
}'
List all Bare Metal instances available in your Vultr account and note the target instance's ID.
$ vultr-cli bare-metal list
Add new tags to the instance.
$ vultr-cli bare-metal tags <instance_id> --tags <tag1,tag2>
