Labels give you a lightweight way to group monitors by team, environment, customer, or anything else. Set them on the monitor edit page, in YAML, or via the CLI — they show up on dashboard rows, filter the monitor list, and emit as OTel resource attributes so downstream dashboards can slice by the same dimension.
