Hi,
We want to be able to tag our host assets to help filter on prod and non-prod environments. We can't use dest because the IPs are constantly changing but the hosts where the logs come from are constant and the environment values we actually want to tag.
Is there a way we can alter or configure the asset lookup so it tags the asset hosts as well?
Which version of ES are you using? It sounds like you could add a custom field and configure it as a tag:

Let me know if that helps.
