Configuring Resource Tags
Last updated:2026-01-23 17:34:05
Overview
Tags are markers provided by Tencent Cloud for identifying cloud resources, and they are key-value pairs. Tags help you conveniently classify and manage TDMQ for RocketMQ resources, such as clusters, topics, and groups, from various dimensions (such as the business, purpose, and owner). In addition, you can also use the authorization by tag method to grant sub-accounts permissions for resources under specific tags using a root account. For detailed operations, see Granting Tag-Level Permissions to Sub-accounts.
Note:
Tencent Cloud will not use the tags you set. Tags are only used for you to manage TDMQ for RocketMQ resources.

Operation Steps and Cases
Case Description
Case: A company has 6 TDMQ for RocketMQ clusters on Tencent Cloud. The following table describes the departments, business scopes, and owners of these clusters.
Queue ID | Department | Business Scope | Owner |
rocketmq-qzga74ov5gw1 | E-commerce | Marketing campaigns | Tom |
rocketmq-qzga74ov5gw2 | E-commerce | Marketing campaigns | Harry |
rocketmq-qzga74ov5gw3 | Gaming | Game A | Jerry |
rocketmq-qzga74ov5gw4 | Gaming | Game B | Harry |
rocketmq-qzga74ov5gw5 | Entertainment | Post-production | Harry |
rocketmq-qzga74ov5gw6 | Entertainment | Post-production | Tom |
With rocketmq-qzga74ov5gw1 as an example, we can add the following three groups of tags to this instance.
