Tag Governance-Virtual Tags
In cloud environments, proper tagging of resources is essential for tracking costs, managing budgets, and ensuring accountability across teams and projects. Our Virtual Tags feature helps you overcome common tagging challenges by providing a centralized way to view, manage, and apply tags when cloud-native tags are missing.
- This capability is available for AWS, Azure, GCP
- Only Admin users with Account Editor permissions can manage and apply Virtual Tags.
- Budget: If a budget relies on Virtual Tags, and new resources have been tagged with values that match those Virtual Tags, the budget will be automatically updated to include those resources during the next invoice processing cycle.
View Untagged Resources
In the virtual tags page, you can locate all your untagged cloud resources. This filtering will allow you to assign Umbrella's virtual tags to these resources, and help you filter and group them using these tags.

Apply Tags In-Platform
You control the addition of virtual tags to resources, without any DevOps or R&D work on your environment. You can apply multiple tags, on each resource, each tag with its own value.
Each resource can be associated with only one Virtual Tag value per tag key. If multiple values exist under the same key, only one will be mapped to the vTag.

Add, update and remove virtual tags
Remove Virtual Tags
Same way as adding virtual tags, you also control the removal of virtual tags from resources, without any DevOps or R&D work on your environment.
Use Tags Across the Platform
You can use the virtual tags in Umbrella's Cost & Usage Explorer, the assets page and the budget monitoring.
