Closed scottopell closed 1 month ago

From https://docs.datadoghq.com/getting_started/tagging/#define-tags

Tags can be up to 200 characters long and support Unicode letters (which includes most character sets, including languages such as Japanese).

which includes most character sets

The question that would need answering is which character sets are allowed. Otherwise I think it's a pretty achievable lift.

scottopell commented 1 year ago

I think this is just imprecise wording in the documentation, from what I understand unicode is the character set.

From the Agent's perspective we support whatever golang does, which should be all of unicode, in either utf-8 or utf-16 encoding (again, what golang supports).

never seen this in the wild, not worth keeping this open
