Abiquo 6.0 introduces tag policies to allow or deny the creation of valid resources with (or without) the defined tags.
Abiquo does not enforce tag policies on resources, instead it creates a report of invalid resources for the administrator to manage.
Abiquo tag policies apply to both Abiquo local multicloud tags and their corresponding tags in supported cloud providers.

To work with tag policies, the user will need the additional privileges to:

• Access tag policies view

• Manage tag policies

The administrator can manage tag policies in the Control view in the Tag management section, on the Tag policies tab.

The Tag management → Entities tab from previous versions is now the Search tab.

After you create a tag policy, you can check tag compliance on the Compliance report tab. You can filter the Compliance report by the State of the resource (invalid or valid) and search for text in any of the resource attribute columns (e.g. Resource name, Provider type). To sort the Compliance report by the data in a column, click on the column header.

For all resources, the Compliance report displays the following compliance details:

• Resource compliance State (which means its status), which is Valid or Invalid 

• Tags and values

• Keys with no compliant values

• Missing required keys

• Non-compliant values

You can select a resource to display details of its Compliance errors.

You can also obtain the Compliance report using the Abiquo API.

After you have made changes to your tags and resources, to update the Compliance report, click the refresh button at the bottom of the screen.
