Label Management
Overview
Labels in Tycho Data Osprey allow you to categorize and organize assets based on custom metadata. Labels are flexible tags that can be used to group assets by purpose, criticality, location, process area, or any other dimension relevant to your organization.
Labels improve filtering, asset ownership, and reporting across domains and displays.
