+# Labels
+
+The **labels** processor lets you manipulate the labels of metrics.
+
+Similar to filters, this processor presents a enriching/modifying mechanism to
+perform operations for labels manipulation. The most significant difference is
+that processors perform better than filters, and when chaining them there are no
+encoding or decoding performance penalties.
+
+{% hint style="info" %}
+**Note:** Both processors and this specific component can be enabled only by using
+the YAML configuration format. Classic mode configuration format doesn't support
+processors.
+{% endhint %}
+
+## Configuration Parameters
+
+| Key    | Description |
+| :----- | :---------- |
+| update | Update an existing key with a value into metrics. The key/value pair is required. If the specified key doesn't exist, the operation silently fails and has no effect. |
+| insert | Insert a new key with a value into metrics. The key/value pair is required. |
+| upsert  | Upsert a specific key with a value, the `upsert` operation will try to update the value of the key. If the key does not exist, the key will be created. The key-value pair is required. |
+| delete | Delete a key from the labels of metrics. The key/value pair is required. If the specified key doesn't exist, the operation silently fails and has no effect. |
+| hash   | Replace the key value with a hash generated by the SHA-256 algorithm from the specified label name. The generated binary value is set as a hex string. |
+
+#### Update example
+
+Change the value of the `name` to `fluentbit`:
+
+```yaml
+pipeline:
+  inputs:
+    - name: fluentbit_metrics
+      processors:
+        metrics:
+          - name: labels
+            update: name fluentbit
+  outputs:
+    - name : stdout
+      match: '*'
+```
+
+#### Insert example
+
+The following example appends the key `agent` with the value `fluentbit` as the label
+of metrics:
+
+```yaml
+pipeline:
+  inputs:
+    - name: fluentbit_metrics
+      processors:
+        metrics:
+          - name: labels
+            insert: agent fluentbit
+  outputs:
+    - name : stdout
+      match: '*'
+```
+
+#### Upsert example
+
+Upsert the value of `name` and insert `fluentbit`:
+
+```yaml
+pipeline:
+  inputs:
+    - name: fluentbit_metrics
+      processors:
+        metrics:
+          - name: labels
+            upsert: name fluentbit
+  outputs:
+    - name : stdout
+      match: '*'
+```
+
+#### Delete example
+
+Delete containing `name` key from metrics:
+
+```yaml
+pipeline:
+  inputs:
+    - name: fluentbit_metrics
+      processors:
+        metrics:
+          - name: labels
+            delete: name
+  outputs:
+    - name : stdout
+      match: '*'
+```
+
+#### Hash example
+
+Apply the SHA-1 algorithm for the value of the key `hostname`:
+
+```yaml
+pipeline:
+  inputs:
+    - name: fluentbit_metrics
+      processors:
+        metrics:
+          - name: labels
+            hash: hostname
+  outputs:
+    - name : stdout
+      match: '*'
+```
