To help you manage your tenant list in Microsoft 365 Lighthouse, you can apply custom tags to your tenants. These tags can be used to organize your tenants and can also help you filter the existing views and insights available to relevant sets of tenants. You can manage your tags from the Tenants page. Once created and assigned, you can filter the data within the Tenants, Users, Devices, Threat management, and Windows 365 pages based on a tag.

Before you begin

To manage tenant tags, you must:

Create a tag

  1. In the left navigation pane in Lighthouse, select Tenants.

  2. Select Manage Tags.

  3. In the Manage tags pane, select Create tag.

  4. Enter a name and description.

  5. Select Save.

Edit a tag

  1. In the left navigation pane in Lighthouse, select Tenants.

  2. Select Manage Tags.

  3. In the Manage tags pane, select the tag that you want to edit.

  4. Edit the name and/or description as needed.

  5. Select Save.

Assign a tag

  1. In the left navigation pane in Lighthouse, select Tenants.

  2. From the list of tenants, select the three dots (more actions) next to the tenant you want to tag.

  3. Select Tags.

  4. Select a tag from the list. You can select only one tag at a time.

Tags that are already assigned to the tenant have a check mark to the right of the tag name. You can also assign a tag to multiple tenants by selecting the checkbox next to each tenant in the list, selecting Assign Tags, and then selecting a tag from the list.

Note

You can create up to 30 unique Tags and assign them to as many tenants as needed.

Delete a tag

  1. In the left navigation pane in Lighthouse, select Tenants.

  2. Select Manage Tags.

  3. In the Manage tags pane, select the tag that you want to delete.

  4. Select Delete.

  5. In the confirmation dialog, select Confirm.

Remove a tag

  1. In the left navigation pane in Lighthouse, select Tenants.

  2. From the list of tenants, select the three dots (more actions) next to the tenant you want to edit.

  3. Select Tags.

  4. Select the tag you want to remove.

Tags that are currently assigned have a check mark to the right of the name. You can also remove a tag from multiple tenants by selecting the checkbox next to each tenant in the list, selecting Assign Tags, and then selecting a checked tag from the list.

Next steps

After you've created and assigned tags, you can use them to filter your tenants. Go to any of the other pages (Users, Devices, Threat management, or Windows 365) and select one or more tags from the Tenant filter. You can create new tags to support specific views based on each page.
