About labels

about-labels page anchor

Labels are key-value pairs that you attach to a Cohort or Snapshot to organize and categorize those resources. Twilio Cohorts does not interpret label values; you can use them operationally, for example, to tag resources by team, environment, or campaign.

"team": "growth",

"environment": "production"

Labels are supported on Cohorts and Snapshots. Operations do not support labels.


Pass a labels object when you create a Cohort or Snapshot. You can update a Cohort's labels later. A Snapshot's labels are fixed upon creation, just like the rest of its immutable data.

The following constraints apply to labels:

  • A resource can contain up to 10 label key-value pairs.
  • Keys can contain up to 128 characters; values can contain up to 256 characters.
  • Allowed characters: letters, numbers, periods (.), underscores (_), tildes (~), and hyphens (-).
  • Label values must not be empty strings.
  • Label keys must not begin with the twilio__ prefix, which is reserved.
  • If you omit labels when you create a resource, the field is returned as null in API responses.
  • To remove a label from a Cohort, set its value to null in an update request.

Pass a labels query parameter to List Cohorts or List Snapshots (see the Cohorts API reference) to filter results by one or more labels.

GET /preview/Cohorts?labels=team:growth,environment:production

Separate multiple labels with commas. When you specify more than one label, the results must match all of the specified criteria.
