Synopsis

Calls the Elastic Load Balancing AddTags API operation.

Syntax

Add-ELBResourceTag
-LoadBalancerName <String[]>
-Tag <Tag[]>
-Select <String>
-Force <SwitchParameter>
-ClientConfig <AmazonElasticLoadBalancingConfig>

Description

Adds the specified tags to the specified load balancer. Each load balancer can have a maximum of 10 tags. Each tag consists of a key and an optional value. If a tag with the same key is already associated with the load balancer, AddTags updates its value. For more information, see Tag Your Classic Load Balancer in the Classic Load Balancers Guide.

Note: For scripts written against earlier versions of this module this cmdlet can also be invoked with the alias, Add-ELBTags.

Parameters

-ClientConfig <AmazonElasticLoadBalancingConfig>
Amazon.PowerShell.Cmdlets.ELB.AmazonElasticLoadBalancingClientCmdlet.ClientConfig
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-Force <SwitchParameter>
This parameter overrides confirmation prompts to force the cmdlet to continue its operation. This parameter should always be used with caution.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-LoadBalancerName <String[]>
The name of the load balancer. You can specify one load balancer only. Starting with version 4 of the SDK this property will default to null. If no data for this property is returned from the service the property will also be null. This was changed to improve performance and allow the SDK and caller to distinguish between a property not set or a property being empty to clear out a value. To retain the previous SDK behavior set the AWSConfigs.InitializeCollections static property to true.
Required?True
Position?1
Accept pipeline input?True (ByValue, ByPropertyName)
AliasesLoadBalancerNames
-Select <String>
Use the -Select parameter to control the cmdlet output. The cmdlet doesn't have a return value by default. Specifying -Select '*' will result in the cmdlet returning the whole service response (Amazon.ElasticLoadBalancing.Model.AddTagsResponse). Specifying -Select '^ParameterName' will result in the cmdlet returning the selected cmdlet parameter value.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-Tag <Tag[]>
The tags. Starting with version 4 of the SDK this property will default to null. If no data for this property is returned from the service the property will also be null. This was changed to improve performance and allow the SDK and caller to distinguish between a property not set or a property being empty to clear out a value. To retain the previous SDK behavior set the AWSConfigs.InitializeCollections static property to true.
Required?True
Position?2
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesTags

Common Credential and Region Parameters

-AccessKey <String>
The AWS access key for the user account. This can be a temporary access key if the corresponding session token is supplied to the -SessionToken parameter.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesAK
-Credential <AWSCredentials>
An AWSCredentials object instance containing access and secret key information, and optionally a token for session-based credentials.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByValue, ByPropertyName)
-EndpointUrl <String>
The endpoint to make the call against.Note: This parameter is primarily for internal AWS use and is not required/should not be specified for normal usage. The cmdlets normally determine which endpoint to call based on the region specified to the -Region parameter or set as default in the shell (via Set-DefaultAWSRegion). Only specify this parameter if you must direct the call to a specific custom endpoint.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-NetworkCredential <PSCredential>
Used with SAML-based authentication when ProfileName references a SAML role profile. Contains the network credentials to be supplied during authentication with the configured identity provider's endpoint. This parameter is not required if the user's default network identity can or should be used during authentication.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByValue, ByPropertyName)
-ProfileLocation <String>
Used to specify the name and location of the ini-format credential file (shared with the AWS CLI and other AWS SDKs)If this optional parameter is omitted this cmdlet will search the encrypted credential file used by the AWS SDK for .NET and AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio first. If the profile is not found then the cmdlet will search in the ini-format credential file at the default location: (user's home directory)\.aws\credentials.If this parameter is specified then this cmdlet will only search the ini-format credential file at the location given.As the current folder can vary in a shell or during script execution it is advised that you use specify a fully qualified path instead of a relative path.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesAWSProfilesLocation, ProfilesLocation
-ProfileName <String>
The user-defined name of an AWS credentials or SAML-based role profile containing credential information.

Required?False

-SecretKey <String>
The AWS secret key for the user account. This can be a temporary secret key if the corresponding session token is supplied to the -SessionToken parameter.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesSK, SecretAccessKey
-SessionToken <String>

Outputs

None or Amazon.ElasticLoadBalancing.Model.AddTagsResponse
This cmdlet does not generate any output.The service response (type Amazon.ElasticLoadBalancing.Model.AddTagsResponse) be returned by specifying '-Select *'.

Examples

Example 1

Add-ELBResourceTag -LoadBalancerName my-load-balancer -Tag @{ Key="project";Value="lima" },@{ Key="department";Value="digital-media" }
This example adds the specified tags to the specified load balancer. The syntax used by this example requires PowerShell version 3 or later.

Example 2

$tag = New-Object Amazon.ElasticLoadBalancing.Model.Tag
$tag.Key = "project"
$tag.Value = "lima"
Add-ELBResourceTag -LoadBalancerName my-load-balancer -Tag $tag
With PowerShell version 2, you must use New-Object to create a tag for the Tag parameter.
