What does this PR do? What is the motivation?

We have a new preferred tags feature in CCM, which lets users select up to 5 preferred tags and populates them throughout the CCM product. These docs explain how/where to select preferred tags and where to see them.

Merge instructions

Let's wait for the feature to be fully rolled out before merging the docs.

Merge readiness:

  • Ready for merge

For Datadog employees:

Your branch name MUST follow the <name>/<description> convention and include the forward slash (/). Without this format, your pull request will not pass CI, the GitLab pipeline will not run, and you won't get a branch preview. Getting a branch preview makes it easier for us to check any issues with your PR, such as broken links.

If your branch doesn't follow this format, rename it or create a new branch and PR.

[6/5/2025] Merge queue has been disabled on the documentation repo. If you have write access to the repo, the PR has been reviewed by a Documentation team member, and all of the required checks have passed, you can use the Squash and Merge button to merge the PR. If you don't have write access, or you need help, reach out in the #documentation channel in Slack.

Preferred tags can be selected from any of your existing tags on your cost data, including [Tag Pipelines][3]. Preferred tags are applied at the organizational level.
