CacheTagConfig - Amazon CloudFront
Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).

CacheTagConfig

A complex type that specifies the HTTP header name from which CloudFront extracts cache tags from origin responses. When you add CacheTagConfig to a distribution, CloudFront reads the specified header from origin responses, parses the comma-separated tag values, and stores them with the cached object. You can then invalidate cached objects by tag using the CreateInvalidation API.
