Description
AWS SDK for JavaScript ResourceGroupsTaggingAPI Client for Node.js, Browser and React Native.
Resource Groups Tagging API
This guide describes the API operations for the resource groups tagging.
A tag is a label that you assign to an AWS resource. A tag consists of a key and a
value, both of which you define. For example, if you have two Amazon EC2 instances, you might
assign both a tag key of "Stack." But the value of "Stack" might be "Testing" for one
and "Production" for the other.
Do not store personally identifiable information (PII) or other confidential or
sensitive information in tags. We use tags to provide you with billing and
administration services. Tags are not intended to be used for private or sensitive
data.
Tagging can help you organize your resources and enables you to simplify resource
management, access management and cost allocation.
You can use the resource groups tagging API operations to complete the following
tasks:
-
Tag and untag supported resources located in the specified Region for the
AWS account.
-
Use tag-based filters to search for resources located in the specified Region
for the AWS account.
-
List all existing tag keys in the specified Region for the AWS
account.
-
List all existing values for the specified key in the specified Region for the
AWS account.
To use resource groups tagging API operations, you must add the following permissions
to your IAM policy:
-
tag:GetResources
-
tag:TagResources
-
tag:UntagResources
-
tag:GetTagKeys
-
tag:GetTagValues
You'll also need permissions to access the resources of individual services so that
you can tag and untag those resources.
For more information on IAM policies, see Managing IAM
Policies in the IAM User Guide.
Services that support the Resource Groups Tagging
API
You can use the Resource Groups Tagging API to tag resources for the following AWS
services.
Installing
To install the this package, simply type add or install @aws-sdk/client-resource-groups-tagging-api
using your favorite package manager:
npm install @aws-sdk/client-resource-groups-tagging-api
yarn add @aws-sdk/client-resource-groups-tagging-api
pnpm add @aws-sdk/client-resource-groups-tagging-api
Getting Started
Import
The AWS SDK is modulized by clients and commands.
To send a request, you only need to import the ResourceGroupsTaggingAPIClient
and
the commands you need, for example DescribeReportCreationCommand
:
const {
ResourceGroupsTaggingAPIClient,
DescribeReportCreationCommand,
} = require("@aws-sdk/client-resource-groups-tagging-api");
import {
ResourceGroupsTaggingAPIClient,
DescribeReportCreationCommand,
} from "@aws-sdk/client-resource-groups-tagging-api";
Usage
To send a request, you:
- Initiate client with configuration (e.g. credentials, region).
- Initiate command with input parameters.
- Call
send
operation on client with command object as input. - If you are using a custom http handler, you may call
destroy()
to close open connections.
const client = new ResourceGroupsTaggingAPIClient({ region: "REGION" });
const params = {
};
const command = new DescribeReportCreationCommand(params);
Async/await
We recommend using await
operator to wait for the promise returned by send operation as follows:
try {
const data = await client.send(command);
} catch (error) {
} finally {
}
Async-await is clean, concise, intuitive, easy to debug and has better error handling
as compared to using Promise chains or callbacks.
Promises
You can also use Promise chaining
to execute send operation.
client.send(command).then(
(data) => {
},
(error) => {
}
);
Promises can also be called using .catch()
and .finally()
as follows:
client
.send(command)
.then((data) => {
})
.catch((error) => {
})
.finally(() => {
});
Callbacks
We do not recommend using callbacks because of callback hell,
but they are supported by the send operation.
client.send(command, (err, data) => {
});
v2 compatible style
The client can also send requests using v2 compatible style.
However, it results in a bigger bundle size and may be dropped in next major version. More details in the blog post
on modular packages in AWS SDK for JavaScript
import * as AWS from "@aws-sdk/client-resource-groups-tagging-api";
const client = new AWS.ResourceGroupsTaggingAPI({ region: "REGION" });
try {
const data = client.describeReportCreation(params);
} catch (error) {
}
client
.describeReportCreation(params)
.then((data) => {
})
.catch((error) => {
});
client.describeReportCreation(params, (err, data) => {
});
Troubleshooting
When the service returns an exception, the error will include the exception information,
as well as response metadata (e.g. request id).
try {
const data = await client.send(command);
} catch (error) {
const { requestId, cfId, extendedRequestId } = error.$metadata;
console.log({ requestId, cfId, extendedRequestId });
}

Please use these community resources for getting help.
We use the GitHub issues for tracking bugs and feature requests, but have limited bandwidth to address them.
