tag-resource

Description

An API operation for adding one or more tags (key-value pairs) to a resource.

You can use the TagResource operation with a resource that already has tags. If you specify a new tag key for the resource, this tag is appended to the list of tags associated with the resource. If you specify a tag key that is already associated with the resource, the new tag value you specify replaces the previous value for that tag.

Although the maximum number of array members is 200, user-tag maximum is 50. The remaining are reserved for Amazon Web Services use.

--resource-tags (list)

A list of tag key-value pairs to be added to the resource.

Each tag consists of a key and a value, and each key must be unique for the resource. The following restrictions apply to resource tags:

  • Although the maximum number of array members is 200, you can assign a maximum of 50 user-tags to one resource. The remaining are reserved for Amazon Web Services use
  • The maximum length of a key is 128 characters
  • The maximum length of a value is 256 characters
  • Keys and values can only contain alphanumeric characters, spaces, and any of the following: _.:/=+@-
  • Keys and values are case sensitive
  • Keys and values are trimmed for any leading or trailing whitespaces
  • Don’t use aws: as a prefix for your keys. This prefix is reserved for Amazon Web Services use

Shorthand Syntax:

JSON Syntax:

[
  {
    "Key": "string",
    "Value": "string"
  }
  ...
]

--cli-input-json (string) Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.
