IAM / Client / tag_mfa_device
tag_mfa_device#
- IAM.Client.tag_mfa_device(**kwargs)#
Adds one or more tags to an IAM virtual multi-factor authentication (MFA) device. If a tag with the same key name already exists, then that tag is overwritten with the new value.
A tag consists of a key name and an associated value. By assigning tags to your resources, you can do the following:
Administrative grouping and discovery - Attach tags to resources to aid in organization and search. For example, you could search for all resources with the key name Project and the value MyImportantProject. Or search for all resources with the key name Cost Center and the value 41200.
Access control - Include tags in IAM user-based and resource-based policies. You can use tags to restrict access to only an IAM virtual MFA device that has a specified tag attached. For examples of policies that show how to use tags to control access, see Control access using IAM tags in the IAM User Guide.
Note
If any one of the tags is invalid or if you exceed the allowed maximum number of tags, then the entire request fails and the resource is not created. For more information about tagging, see Tagging IAM resources in the IAM User Guide.
Amazon Web Services always interprets the tag
Value
as a single string. If you need to store an array, you can store comma-separated values in the string. However, you must interpret the value in your code.

Request Syntax
response = client.tag_mfa_device( SerialNumber='string', Tags=[ { 'Key': 'string', 'Value': 'string' }, ] )
- Parameters:
SerialNumber (string) –
[REQUIRED]
The unique identifier for the IAM virtual MFA device to which you want to add tags. For virtual MFA devices, the serial number is the same as the ARN.
This parameter allows (through its regex pattern) a string of characters consisting of upper and lowercase alphanumeric characters with no spaces. You can also include any of the following characters: _+=,.@-
Tags (list) –
[REQUIRED]
The list of tags that you want to attach to the IAM virtual MFA device. Each tag consists of a key name and an associated value.
(dict) –
A structure that represents user-provided metadata that can be associated with an IAM resource. For more information about tagging, see Tagging IAM resources in the IAM User Guide.
Key (string) – [REQUIRED]
The key name that can be used to look up or retrieve the associated value. For example,
Department
orCost Center
are common choices.Value (string) – [REQUIRED]
The value associated with this tag. For example, tags with a key name of
Department
could have values such asHuman Resources
,Accounting
, andSupport
. Tags with a key name ofCost Center
might have values that consist of the number associated with the different cost centers in your company. Typically, many resources have tags with the same key name but with different values.Note

Value
as a single string. If you need to store an array, you can store comma-separated values in the string. However, you must interpret the value in your code.
