Hi,

Do you have some example to understand it better?

Best regards

Hello @AntonPineiro 

I applied the tags on the Pods through API, as this is not possible through the automatic tag, and those are considered manual.

Dear Babar,

API tags are considered manual tags because when you use the Environment API v2 "Monitored entities - Custom tags," you are assigning tags to specific entities manually. This is in contrast to automatic tagging, which can be achieved using the Environment API v2 "Settings - Objects" with the schema ID builtin:tags.auto-tagging. Automatic tags are generated based on predefined rules and do not appear as manual tags.

Manual API schema ID

Auto Tag schema ID

Use Setting Object API
