Tagging your resources
A tag is metadata that you can associate with an Amazon Translate resource. A tag consists of a key-value pair. You can add tags to Parallel Data and Custom Terminology resources.
Tags have two major functions: organizing your resources and providing tag-based access control. You can add tags to a resource and then create IAM policies to allow or restrict access to the resource based on its tags.
A policy can allow or disallow an operation based on the tags provided in your request (request-tags) or tags associated with the resource you're calling (resource-tags). For more information on using tags with IAM, see Controlling access using tags in the IAM User Guide.
Considerations for using tags with Amazon Translate:
-
You can add up to 50 user tags per resource.
-
You can add tags when you create the resource, or any time after you create it.
-
A tag key is a required field but a tag value is optional.
-
Tags don't have to be unique between resources, but the tags for a given resource must have unique keys.
-
Tag keys and values are case sensitive.
-
A tag key can have a maximum of 128 characters; a tag value can have a maximum of 256 characters.
-
AWS system tags start with prefix
aws:in the tag key or value. You can't add, edit, or delete tag names or values with this prefix. System tags are not included in your tags quota per resource.
Note
If you plan to use your tagging schema across multiple AWS services and resources, remember that other services may have different requirements for allowed characters.
