Tagging your resources - Amazon EMR
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).

Tagging your resources

You can tag new or existing applications and job runs. If you're using the Amazon EMR Serverless API, the Amazon CLI, or an Amazon SDK, you can apply tags to new resources using the tags parameter on the relevant API action. You can apply tags to existing resources using the TagResource API action.

You can use some resource-creating actions to specify tags for a resource when the resource is created. In this case, if tags cannot be applied while the resource is being created, the resource fails to be created. This mechanism ensures that resources you intended to tag on creation are either created with specified tags or not created at all. If you tag resources at the time of creation, you do not need to run custom tagging scripts after creating a resource.

The following table describes the Amazon EMR Serverless resources that can be tagged.
