Asset tags are used to automatically group assets together based on discovered information (services, apps, features etc.) or by manually assigning the tag.
Gorelo has a few built-in tags that will always be present and the rest will come from your own custom tags.
Built-in tags
All: will be present on ALL assets.
Client Name: such as βAcme Corpβ
Client Location: such as β123 Fake Street (Acme Corp)β
OS Type: Windows Workstation, Windows Server or MacOS Workstation
Custom tags
Navigate to Settings β> Tags β> Asset Policy Tags
Create an Asset Tag (down the bottom)
Tag: this is the name of the tag E.g βVeeam B&Rβ
Sticky: the tag can be automatically added but not automatically removed (see NOTE)
Property: choose from Apps, Services, Registry Key and Windows Features
Condition: choose the appropriate condition
Value: enter the expected value

Tag expressions are evaluated roughly every ~6 hours and immediately when the Gorelo.Rmm.Shell service is started (at first boot or manually).
Sticky should be used when you have policies attached with important checks (like backup monitoring). In the event someone accidentally uninstalls Veeam, the tag would remain and the Veeam backup check would continue to alert.
These tags can be manually removed once the expression no longer matches.
