Creating labels in Google Cloud Platform (GCP) is an essential practice for organizing and managing resources efficiently within cloud environments. 

In the Google Cloud Console, administrators can create labels by navigating to the specific resource they wish to label, accessing the "Labels" tab, and adding key-value pairs that define the desired metadata.

Labels play a crucial role in cost allocation and resource management, allowing organizations to track usage and spending across different projects, departments, or teams. By applying labels to resources, administrators can generate detailed cost reports and analyze spending patterns, enabling better cost optimization and budget management.
