rsrc tagging 3.3 spec

Each EC2 tag consists of a key and a value, both of which the user can define.
The following basic restrictions apply to tags:
Maximum Number of Tags Per Resource—10
Maximum Key Length—128 Unicode characters
Maximum Value Length—256 Unicode characters
Unavailable Prefix—aws: (we have reserved it for tag names and values)
Tag keys and values are case sensitive. You can't terminate, stop, or delete a resource based solely on its tags. An instance can't retrieve its own tags from its metadata. Tag information is available only through the EC2 API.
You can tag the following:
images (AMIs, kernels, RAM disks)
instances
security groups
volumes
snapshots
The following cannot be tagged:
Elastic IP addresses
Key pairs
Placement groups
You can tag public or shared resources, but the tags you assign are available only to your AWS account and not to the other accounts sharing the resource.

- DeleteTag
- DescribeTags
- NOTE: also supports filtering by:
- resource-type (e.g., volume, instance)
- resource-id (e.g., i-XXXXXXXX which is associated w/ the tag)
- key
- value
You can search and filter resources based on the above described tags (e.g., --filter tag:Owner=TeamA)
- tag-key
- The key of a tag assigned to the resource. This filter is independent of the tag-value filter. For example, if you use both the filter tag-key=Purpose and the filter tag-value=X, you get any resources assigned both the tag key Purpose (regardless of what the tag's value is), and the tag value X (regardless of what the tag's key is). If you want to list only resources where Purpose=X, see the tag:key filter later in this table. Type: String
- tag-value
- The value of a tag assigned to the resource. This filter is independent of the tag-key filter. Type: String
tag:key
Filters the results based on a specific tag/value combination.
Example: To list just the resources assigned tag Purpose=X, then specify:
Filter.1.Name=tag:Purpose
Filter.1.Value.1=X
Example: To list just resources assigned tag Purpose=X OR Purpose=Y, then specify:
Filter.1.Name=tag:Purpose
Filter.1.Value.1=X
Filter.1.Value.2=Y
