Labels Overview

Labels Overview

A label is a global object that you can associate with any versioned object or group of versioned objects in a repository. You may want to apply labels to versioned objects to achieve the following results:
  • Track versioned objects during development.
  • Improve query results.
  • Associate groups of objects for deployment.
  • Associate groups of objects for import and export.
For example, you might apply a label to sources, targets, mappings, and sessions associated with a workflow so that you can deploy the workflow to another repository without breaking any dependency.
You can apply the label to multiple versions of an object. Or you can specify that you can apply the label to one version of the object.
You can create and modify labels in the Label Browser. From the Repository Manager, click Versioning > Labels to browse for a label.
