Important
Because Az PowerShell modules now have all the capabilities of AzureRM PowerShell modules and more, we'll retire AzureRM PowerShell modules on 29 February 2024.
To avoid service interruptions, update your scripts that use AzureRM PowerShell modules to use Az PowerShell modules by 29 February 2024. To automatically update your scripts, follow the quickstart guide.
Syntax
Get-AzureRmTag
[[-Name] <String>]
[-Detailed]
[-DefaultProfile <IAzureContextContainer>]
[<CommonParameters>]
Description
The Get-AzureRmTag cmdlet gets predefined Azure tags in your subscription. This cmdlet returns basic information about the tags or detailed information about tags and their values. All output objects include a Count property that represents the number of resources and resource groups to which the tags and values have been applied. The Azure Tags module that Get-AzureRMTag is a part of can help you manage predefined Azure tags. An Azure tag is a name-value pair that you can use to categorize your Azure resources and resource groups, such as by department or cost center, or to track notes or comments about the resources and groups. You can define and apply tags in a single step, but predefined tags let you establish standard, consistent, predictable names and values for the tags in your subscription. To create a predefined tag, use the New-AzureRmTag cmdlet. To apply a predefined tag to a resource group, use the Tag parameter of the New-AzureRmTag cmdlet. To search resource groups for a specific tag name or name and value, use the Tag parameter of the Get-AzureRMResourceGroup cmdlet.
