DynamoDB / Client / tag_resource

tag_resource#

DynamoDB.Client.tag_resource(**kwargs)#

Associate a set of tags with an Amazon DynamoDB resource. You can then activate these user-defined tags so that they appear on the Billing and Cost Management console for cost allocation tracking. You can call TagResource up to five times per second, per account.

  • TagResource is an asynchronous operation. If you issue a ListTagsOfResource request immediately after a TagResource request, DynamoDB might return your previous tag set, if there was one, or an empty tag set. This is because ListTagsOfResource uses an eventually consistent query, and the metadata for your tags or table might not be available at that moment. Wait for a few seconds, and then try the ListTagsOfResource request again.

  • The application or removal of tags using TagResource and UntagResource APIs is eventually consistent. ListTagsOfResource API will only reflect the changes after a few seconds.

For an overview on tagging DynamoDB resources, see Tagging for DynamoDB in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.

Request Syntax

response = client.tag_resource(
    ResourceArn='string',
    Tags=[
        {
            'Key': 'string',
            'Value': 'string'
        },
    ]
)
Parameters:

  • ResourceArn (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

    Identifies the Amazon DynamoDB resource to which tags should be added. This value is an Amazon Resource Name (ARN).

  • Tags (list) –

    [REQUIRED]

    The tags to be assigned to the Amazon DynamoDB resource.

    • (dict) –

      Describes a tag. A tag is a key-value pair. You can add up to 50 tags to a single DynamoDB table.

      Amazon Web Services-assigned tag names and values are automatically assigned the aws: prefix, which the user cannot assign. Amazon Web Services-assigned tag names do not count towards the tag limit of 50. User-assigned tag names have the prefix user: in the Cost Allocation Report. You cannot backdate the application of a tag.

      For an overview on tagging DynamoDB resources, see Tagging for DynamoDB in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.

      • Key (string) – [REQUIRED]

        The key of the tag. Tag keys are case sensitive. Each DynamoDB table can only have up to one tag with the same key. If you try to add an existing tag (same key), the existing tag value will be updated to the new value.

      • Value (string) – [REQUIRED]

        The value of the tag. Tag values are case-sensitive and can be null.

Returns:

None
