Delete tags - Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling

Delete tags

You can delete a tag associated with your Auto Scaling group at any time.

Delete tags (console)

To delete a tag
  1. Open the Amazon EC2 console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/ec2/, and choose Auto Scaling Groups from the navigation pane.

  2. Select the check box next to an existing group.

    A split pane opens up in the bottom of the Auto Scaling groups page.

  3. On the Details tab, choose Tags, Edit.

  4. Choose Remove next to the tag.

  5. Choose Update.

Delete tags (AWS CLI)

Use the delete-tags command to delete a tag. For example, the following command deletes a tag with a key of environment.

aws autoscaling delete-tags --tags "ResourceId=my-asg,ResourceType=auto-scaling-group,Key=environment"

You must specify the tag key, but you don't have to specify the value. If you specify a value and the value is incorrect, the tag is not deleted.
