# Tagging and Metadata

As of Morpheus version 4.1.0, tagging support is included for vCenter in addition to the other clouds that have already supported it in past versions. Tags will sync to vCenter from Morpheus and existing tags are also inventoried from vCenter into Morpheus.

NOTE

This feature requires a minimum API version of vCenter 6.5. The API version can be edited by navigating to ‘Infrastructure > Clouds’ and clicking the edit (pencil) button in the row for the relevant cloud. The field is labeled ‘VERSION’.

Tags can be created on-demand when provisioning from the ‘CONFIGURE’ tab of the ‘CREATE INSTANCE’ wizard (Provisioning > Instances). Within the ‘Metadata’ drawer, you will see sets of fields to enter key/value pairs. On creation of the instance, this metadata will be synced into vCenter.

‘Inputs’ from your library can also be exported as metadata for use with vCenter. When adding or editing a new Input (Library > Options > Inputs), simply mark the box labeled ‘EXPORT AS METADATA’. The ‘FIELD NAME’ becomes the tag category in VMWare.
