About this task
Catalog tags are metadata labels that you can apply to data assets to enable classification, categorization, and discovery. Tags provide a flexible way to describe data characteristics, business context, data quality, sensitivity levels, or any other attributes relevant to your organization.
You can search and filter data assets based on applied tags, making it easier to find data assets that meet specific criteria or share common characteristics.
