# labels sets includeSelectors: false and includeTemplates: true. Where do the labels end up?

Kustomize, Hard (Expert), Concepts. https://k8wiz.com/uquiz/labels-sets-includeselectors-false-and-includetemplates-true-where-do-the-labels-end-up

- A. Only on the pod templates, not on the resources
- B. On the resources and their pod templates, but not on selectors
- C. On the selectors and the pod templates, but not the resources
- D. Only on the resources, because includeTemplates needs selectors

**Answer:** On the resources and their pod templates, but not on selectors

**Explanation:** includeTemplates adds the labels to spec.template.metadata, so Pods carry them for monitoring or cost tools, while includeSelectors: false keeps them out of selectors that Kubernetes won't let you change.
