We invite you to update your agents as soon as possible to take advantage of these improvements.
GLPI has categories, types, and other kinds of options to categorize and split related objects into groups. Imagine you could gather different objects that have any relation. Be it a project, a client, a group of clients, a status, or even expand the possibilities of categorizing objects inside their already created categorization.
That's what the plugin Tags does.
It is exactly as, in a physical environment, labeling things to make sure that on a first look, we know that this object is part of something else.
Business rules integration: one of the standout features of the tag management plugin is its ability to integrate tags with business rules for tickets. This means that tags can be added to tickets based on pre-defined criteria.
Permission controls: to prevent an overload of unnecessary tags, the plugin offers essential permission settings. These settings ensure that only authorized personnel, typically administrators, can create and manage tags. This level of control helps maintain a clean and orderly tag system, preventing misuse and clutter that could complicate asset and ticket management.
Administrative control: the focus on administrative control within the tag management system ensures that tags are created in a structured and thoughtful manner. By centralizing tag creation and management, GLPI ensures that the tagging system remains an effective tool for organization and doesn’t become a source of confusion. There is also the ability to add colors to tags, so it becomes easier to find groups at first sight.
The practicality of the tag management plugin shines across various applications within GLPI. Here are a few examples:
These applications demonstrate the versatility and utility of the tag management system in everyday scenarios, making it an essential tool for any GLPI user.
There are also some unusual ways of using the Tags plugin. The administrator's creativity is the limit.
The Tags plugin is a powerful extra resource to GLPI, offering significant improvements in efficiency and organization. By utilizing this tool, service departments may ensure that their resources are used effectively, and that information is always at their fingertips, and with fewer clicks.

At Teclib´ we are happy to announce that we are expecting the release of GLPI 10 in the following weeks. We have received many questions related to migration from older versions of GLPI/compatibility of plugins and decided to publish a dedicated video. Watch it on Youtube or read the transcription below.
You can migrate to version 10 from any GLPI version (we support migrations from at least 0.80 version), all data, like users, tickets or assets, will be transferred.
The server must have at least PHP 7.4 and MySQL 5.6 dependencies. If your server doesn’t have these, you must upgrade these requirements.
No data loss is expected, but as usual, make backups (files and database) and/or snapshots.
You will need to execute some optional migrations after GLPI main update with the help of the console.
If you have custom developments or core changes, please note they will be erased when copying the files. Consider porting them before the migration.
All plugins listed in GLPI Network Subscriptions (both Community and Exclusive ones) will be compatible with GLPI 10.
Check https://plugins.glpi-project.org/#/version/~~10.0.0/plugins for a community based list.
In addition to the small gain of not using a plugin, the feature will use less history data and database storage (for example, software updates take 1 line instead 2).
We worked also on user experience, you have now assets separated by types for a more comfortable setup.
It unlocks some features like partial inventories, which reduces performances footprint.
More asset types are available for inventory (you can send files for racks, appliances, certificates, etc).
In combination with GLPI agent, you also obtain some great features:
Our professional support for on-premise (GLPI Network Subscriptions) covers support L.3 for migration from GLPI 9.5 to GLPI 10.
All GLPI Network Cloud paid customers will be upgraded for free.
Major features:
New Modern interface with Bootstrap + tabler.io + Twig
Redesign of the timeline of Helpdesk objects
Native automatic inventory
Refresh of GANTT and reservations view
Kanban in helpdesk list
