Describe Tags

ec2_describe_tags R Documentation

Describes the specified tags for your EC2 resources

Description

Describes the specified tags for your EC2 resources.

For more information about tags, see Tag your Amazon EC2 resources in the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud User Guide.

We strongly recommend using only paginated requests. Unpaginated requests are susceptible to throttling and timeouts.

The order of the elements in the response, including those within nested structures, might vary. Applications should not assume the elements appear in a particular order.

Usage

ec2_describe_tags(DryRun, Filters, MaxResults, NextToken)

Arguments

DryRun

Checks whether you have the required permissions for the action, without actually making the request, and provides an error response. If you have the required permissions, the error response is DryRunOperation. Otherwise, it is UnauthorizedOperation.

Filters

The filters.

  • key - The tag key.

  • resource-id - The ID of the resource.

  • resource-type - The resource type. For a list of possible values, see TagSpecification.

  • tag:\<key\> - The key/value combination of the tag. For example, specify "tag:Owner" for the filter name and "TeamA" for the filter value to find resources with the tag "Owner=TeamA".

  • value - The tag value.

MaxResults

The maximum number of items to return for this request. This value can be between 5 and 1000. To get the next page of items, make another request with the token returned in the output. For more information, see Pagination.

NextToken

The token returned from a previous paginated request. Pagination continues from the end of the items returned by the previous request.

Value

A list with the following syntax: 

list(
  NextToken = "string",
  Tags = list(
    list(
      Key = "string",
      ResourceId = "string",
