Managing tags

Tags act as metadata to organize application resources. You create tags using key-value pairs. You add tags to applications and attribute groups, so you can group them by environment, owner, purpose, or other criteria.

Note

The tags discussed in this section are not the same as the the awsApplication tag. The awsApplication tag is a tag AppRegistry vends on your behalf when you create an application, and AWS automatically applies it to all resources in the application.
