There was another IDEA posted a few years ago asking for WRITE label access from the API, #1325: Add Labels to Sandbox Resources via API - CloudShell Community (quali.com), adding CRUD access for labels via the API would ideal. John Koenig (John.Koenig18) - 05/20/2022 06:33 AM

In addition, the ability to read the label would enable options for configuration management for devices which are of the same Family/Model based on what Label they have, because of their position in the network. This may be a distinction between GeoRegions (say EU compliant vs North America), or which layer in the stack they are in (top of the node, middle, or bottom). So L3VPN, BGP, and other network setting all change for devices based specific deployment position in large network test. Sometimes you need to quickly replicate a small sub-section of the network, and allowing for automation to handle configuration management is CloudShell's whole value proposition. Being able to use the label to designate the "role" of a device only enhances the options when creating orchestration scripts. Kimo Saper (ksaper) - 05/20/2022 06:41 AM

This feature will enable cyber range and other dynamic infrastructure consumers to further ease the consumption of sandboxes. Chuck Reynolds (creynolds) - 05/20/2022 06:52 AM

** For clarity, this is adding labels to item on the Canvas (Blueprint/Sandbox) from this idea: #924: ability-to-label-items-in-the-canvas Kimo Saper (ksaper) - 05/20/2022 07:05 AM

Reading the label from the API would allow us to handle configurations based on the labeling. Labeling individual resources or groups of resources removes the need to maintain physical names on each resource and update the configuration script when those resources change. The script can use the label on the resource and remain unchanged. This would also help us identify how to handle an abstract resource and help us organize data when extracting the resources from a sandbox via API.
