The best option for Governance is to upgrade to Unity Catalog.  This is alternate, not the best. The cluster must be enabled for table access control. https://docs.databricks.com/en/data-governance/table-acls/object-privileges.html#requirements

If you want to search by tag key alone, use the syntax: tag:<tag_key>. To search by both tag key and tag value, omit tag:. https://docs.databricks.com/en/search/index.html#use-tags-to-search-for-tables
