# create

The cldkctl registry label create command creates a new label in the container registry. Labels are used to categorize and manage artifacts within repositories, making it easier to organize, search, and retrieve them efficiently.

## Usage

```
cldkctl registry label create [flags]
```

## Steps

Follow the steps below to run and view the result of this command:

1. Ensure that you are logged in. Refer to the Registry Login section.
2. Specify a label name and description for the new label.
3. You may define a color in hexadecimal format to visually categorize the label.
4. Run the following command in your terminal:

```
cldkctl --registry [registry name] registry label create --name [label name] --description "[label description]"
```

5. Replace `[registry name]` with the target registry, `[label name]` with the desired label name, and `[label description]` with the description text.
6. Once successful, the terminal displays **"✓ Registry label created".**
