+### Custom tags
+In order to add custom Datadog tags to logs, set the `ddtags` attribute on the logs. For example, this can be done with the [transform processor][3]:
+```yaml
+processors:
+  transform:
+    log_statements:
+      - context: log
+        statements:
+          - set(attributes["ddtags"], "first_custom:tag, second_custom:tag")
+```
