Changes  Update ssm client to latest version

AddTagsToResource (updated) Link ¶
Changes (request)
{'ResourceType': {'PatchBaseline', 'Document'}}

Adds or overwrites one or more tags for the specified resource. Tags are metadata that you can assign to your documents, managed instances, Maintenance Windows, Parameter Store parameters, and patch baselines. Tags enable you to categorize your resources in different ways, for example, by purpose, owner, or environment. Each tag consists of a key and an optional value, both of which you define. For example, you could define a set of tags for your account's managed instances that helps you track each instance's owner and stack level. For example: Key=Owner and Value=DbAdmin, SysAdmin, or Dev. Or Key=Stack and Value=Production, Pre-Production, or Test.

Each resource can have a maximum of 10 tags.

We recommend that you devise a set of tag keys that meets your needs for each resource type. Using a consistent set of tag keys makes it easier for you to manage your resources. You can search and filter the resources based on the tags you add. Tags don't have any semantic meaning to Amazon EC2 and are interpreted strictly as a string of characters.

For more information about tags, see Tagging Your Amazon EC2 Resources in the Amazon EC2 User Guide.

param DocumentFilterList:

One or more filters. Use a filter to return a more specific list of results.

      The name of the filter.

    • value (string) -- [REQUIRED]

      The value of the filter.

type Filters:

list

param Filters:

One or more filters. Use a filter to return a more specific list of results.

  • (dict) --

    One or more filters. Use a filter to return a more specific list of documents.

    For keys, you can specify one or more tags that have been applied to a document.

    Other valid values include Owner, Name, PlatformTypes, and DocumentType.

    Note that only one Owner can be specified in a request. For example: Key=Owner,Values=Self.

    If you use Name as a key, you can use a name prefix to return a list of documents. For example, in the AWS CLI, to return a list of all documents that begin with Te, run the following command:

    aws ssm list-documents --filters Key=Name,Values=Te

    If you specify more than two keys, only documents that are identified by all the tags are returned in the results. If you specify more than two values for a key, documents that are identified by any of the values are returned in the results.

    To specify a custom key and value pair, use the format Key=tag:[tagName],Values=[valueName].

    For example, if you created a Key called region and are using the AWS CLI to call the list-documents command:

    aws ssm list-documents --filters Key=tag:region,Values=east,west Key=Owner,Values=Self

    • Key (string) --
