Add tags to Amazon Managed Grafana resources

Focus mode
Add tags to Amazon Managed Grafana resources - Amazon Managed Grafana

A tag is a custom attribute label that you or AWS assigns to an AWS resource. Each AWS tag has two parts:

  • A tag key (for example, CostCenter, Environment, Project, or Secret). Tag keys are case sensitive.

  • An optional field known as a tag value (for example, 111122223333, Production , or a team name). Omitting the tag value is the same as using an empty string. Like tag keys, tag values are case sensitive.

Together these are known as key-value pairs. You can have as many as 50 tags assigned to each workspace.

Tags help you identify and organize your AWS resources. Many AWS services support tagging, so you can assign the same tag to resources from different services to indicate that the resources are related. For example, you can assign the same tag to Amazon Managed Grafana workspaces that are related. For more information about tagging strategies, see Tagging AWS resources in the AWS General Reference Guide.

Amazon Managed Grafana supports tagging workspaces. You can use the console, the AWS CLI, APIs, or SDKs to add, manage, and remove tags for these resources. In addition to identifying, organizing, and tracking your workspaces with tags, you can use tags in IAM policies to help control who can view and interact with your Amazon Managed Grafana resources. For more information on tag-based access control, see Controlling access to AWS resources using tags in the IAM User Guide.

Tag restrictions

The following basic restrictions apply to tags:

  • Each resource can have a maximum of 50 tags.

  • For each resource, each tag key must be unique, and each tag key can have only one value.

  • The maximum tag key length is 128 Unicode characters in UTF-8.

  • The maximum tag value length is 256 Unicode characters in UTF-8.

  • If your tagging schema is used across multiple AWS services and resources, remember that other services might have restrictions on allowed characters. Generally allowed characters are letters, numbers, spaces representable in UTF-8, and the following characters: . : + = @ _ / - (hyphen).

  • Tag keys and values are case sensitive. As a best practice, decide on a strategy for capitalizing tags and consistently implement that strategy across all resource types. For example, decide whether to use Costcenter, costcenter, or CostCenter and use the same convention for all tags. Avoid using similar tags with inconsistent case treatment.

  • Do not use aws:, AWS:, or any combination of the upper or lower case of the keyword AWS as a prefix for either keys or values. These are reserved only for AWS use. You can't edit or delete tag keys or values with this prefix. Tags with this prefix do not count against your tags-per-resource limit.

For more information on tagging restrictions, see Tagging AWS resources in the AWS General Reference Guide.
