Service Configurations
With service configurations all your Ops Insights configurations can be set in a single location. Service configurations also streamlines the process of adding tags to your Ops Insights resources, though standard tags, and automated tag application from on-premise Enterprise Manager resources.
Service configurations can be used to customize how Ops Insights behaves and what experience can be obtained on applications like Capacity Planning, filtering experience, and more; these can be found by navigating to Observability & Management, then Ops Insights, select Administration and click on Service configurations. When setting up configuration values, these can be set at the compartment level, or set at the root compartment level to allow all the compartments to apply those values.
Setting a custom value at the compartment level will override root compartment values for the active compartment if they exist.
- EM property to OCI tag mapping: Allows you to override the tag keys that get applied to Enterprise Manager (EM) resources
- OPSI tag filters: These are filters that can be created and will be visible along with other Ops Insights out-of-box filter

OPSI tag filters
Ops Insights allows the creation of out-of-the-box tag filters, upgrading the OCI tag filter experience. These filters are compartment specific, unless added at the root compartment level. By creating a simple configuration, you can choose up to 15 tag keys (either defined tags or free-form tags) which you would like to become first class filters. To configure new out-of-box filters:
