Adding tags to openAI models

Question

I'm using Azure OpenAI with few models within a resource group. I have multiple projects running under the same resource group for short periods. I don't see any option to add tags to models directly from portal or through bicep code for cost analysis.

If we can have tags option on models we can eliminate building multiple openAI services for different projects.

Let me know if I'm missing anything here.

Hello @ravikanth GULLAPALLI,

Greetings and Welcome to Microsoft Q&A! Thanks for posting the question.

Currently, Azure OpenAI does not support direct tagging at the model level. Tags can only be applied at the resource level, such as the Azure OpenAI service or the resource group it belongs to. This limitation means that individual models cannot be tagged for cost analysis or project-specific tracking directly through the Azure portal or infrastructure-as-code tools like Bicep.

Kindly refer Use tags to organize your Azure resources and management hierarchy and Group and allocate costs using tag inheritance if it helps.

To manage costs and track project usage, alternative approaches like tagging the Azure OpenAI service, using custom logging and metrics, or programmatically tracking usage are recommended.

However, I encourage you to submit a feature request for adding the "Open in New Tab" option through the Azure Feedback Forum to Microsoft for future improvements. Here's the link to the Azure Feedback Forum: Post idea · Community (azure.com).

I Hope this helps. Do let me know if you have any further queries.
