Hi there,
As far as I can tell from the docs, there isn’t a specific annotation to select Droplets by tag when creating a LoadBalancer service in DigitalOcean Kubernetes. The available annotations focus on configuring load balancer settings like protocol, size, and SSL certificates:
https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/kubernetes/how-to/configure-load-balancers
It sounds like you’re looking to select Droplets by tag when provisioning a LoadBalancer service in DigitalOcean Kubernetes. If I remember correctly, in DOKS, the load balancer is automatically tied to worker nodes, not individual Droplets.
Are you trying to control which worker nodes receive traffic from the load balancer? If so, you might need to use node selectors instead of tags.
If you’re looking for something more specific, DigitalOcean support might be able to provide more details: https://do.co/support.
