Shows detailed information about a tag definition and its assignments.
DESCRIBE TAG <name>## Overview Returns detailed metadata for a single tag definition, including its name, description, category, allowed values, propagation setting, and current assignments. This command is the primary way to inspect a tag before modifying or assigning it. ## Behavior - Returns a result set with columns: name, description, category, allowed_values, propagate, and assignment details. - If the named tag does not exist, the command returns an error. - The command routes through the control plane catalog API. A valid catalog router connection is required. - The result includes all current assignments (which tables, views, or columns carry this tag and with what values), providing a single view of the tag's usage. ## Compatibility DESCRIBE TAG is a DeltaForge extension. It is analogous to DESCRIBE commands in standard SQL but targets tag definitions rather than table schemas.
