AssociateKmsKey

$result = $client->associateKmsKey([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->associateKmsKeyAsync([/* ... */]);

Associates the specified KMS key with either one log group in the account, or with all stored CloudWatch Logs query insights results in the account.

When you use AssociateKmsKey, you specify either the logGroupName parameter or the resourceIdentifier parameter. You can't specify both of those parameters in the same operation.

• Specify the logGroupName parameter to cause all log events stored in the log group to be encrypted with that key. Only the log events ingested after the key is associated are encrypted with that key.

  Associating a KMS key with a log group overrides any existing associations between the log group and a KMS key. After a KMS key is associated with a log group, all newly ingested data for the log group is encrypted using the KMS key. This association is stored as long as the data encrypted with the KMS key is still within CloudWatch Logs. This enables CloudWatch Logs to decrypt this data whenever it is requested.

  Associating a key with a log group does not cause the results of queries of that log group to be encrypted with that key. To have query results encrypted with a KMS key, you must use an AssociateKmsKey operation with the resourceIdentifier parameter that specifies a query-result resource.

• Specify the resourceIdentifier parameter with a query-result resource, to use that key to encrypt the stored results of all future StartQuery operations in the account. The response from a GetQueryResults operation will still return the query results in plain text.

  Even if you have not associated a key with your query results, the query results are encrypted when stored, using the default CloudWatch Logs method.

  If you run a query from a monitoring account that queries logs in a source account, the query results key from the monitoring account, if any, is used.

It can take up to 5 minutes for this operation to take effect.

If you attempt to associate a KMS key with a log group but the KMS key does not exist or the KMS key is disabled, you receive an InvalidParameterException error.

CreateDelivery

$result = $client->createDelivery([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createDeliveryAsync([/* ... */]);

Creates a delivery. A delivery is a connection between a logical delivery source and a logical delivery destination that you have already created.

Only some Amazon Web Services services support being configured as a delivery source using this operation. These services are listed as Supported [V2 Permissions] in the table at Enabling logging from Amazon Web Services services.

A delivery destination can represent a log group in CloudWatch Logs, an Amazon S3 bucket, or a delivery stream in Firehose.

To configure logs delivery between a supported Amazon Web Services service and a destination, you must do the following:

• Create a delivery source, which is a logical object that represents the resource that is actually sending the logs. For more information, see PutDeliverySource.

• Create a delivery destination, which is a logical object that represents the actual delivery destination. For more information, see PutDeliveryDestination.

• If you are delivering logs cross-account, you must use PutDeliveryDestinationPolicy in the destination account to assign an IAM policy to the destination. This policy allows delivery to that destination.

• Use CreateDelivery to create a delivery by pairing exactly one delivery source and one delivery destination.

You can configure a single delivery source to send logs to multiple destinations by creating multiple deliveries. You can also create multiple deliveries to configure multiple delivery sources to send logs to the same delivery destination.

You can't update an existing delivery. You can only create and delete deliveries.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->createDelivery([
    'deliveryDestinationArn' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
    'deliverySourceName' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
    'tags' => ['<string>', ...],

CreateExportTask

$result = $client->createExportTask([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createExportTaskAsync([/* ... */]);

Creates an export task so that you can efficiently export data from a log group to an Amazon S3 bucket. When you perform a CreateExportTask operation, you must use credentials that have permission to write to the S3 bucket that you specify as the destination.

Exporting log data to S3 buckets that are encrypted by KMS is supported. Exporting log data to Amazon S3 buckets that have S3 Object Lock enabled with a retention period is also supported.

Exporting to S3 buckets that are encrypted with AES-256 is supported.

This is an asynchronous call. If all the required information is provided, this operation initiates an export task and responds with the ID of the task. After the task has started, you can use DescribeExportTasks to get the status of the export task. Each account can only have one active (RUNNING or PENDING) export task at a time. To cancel an export task, use CancelExportTask.

You can export logs from multiple log groups or multiple time ranges to the same S3 bucket. To separate log data for each export task, specify a prefix to be used as the Amazon S3 key prefix for all exported objects.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->createExportTask([
    'destination' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
    'destinationPrefix' => '<string>',
    'from' => <integer>, // REQUIRED
    'logGroupName' => '<string>', // REQUIRED

CreateLogAnomalyDetector

$result = $client->createLogAnomalyDetector([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createLogAnomalyDetectorAsync([/* ... */]);

Creates an anomaly detector that regularly scans one or more log groups and look for patterns and anomalies in the logs.

An anomaly detector can help surface issues by automatically discovering anomalies in your log event traffic. An anomaly detector uses machine learning algorithms to scan log events and find patterns. A pattern is a shared text structure that recurs among your log fields. Patterns provide a useful tool for analyzing large sets of logs because a large number of log events can often be compressed into a few patterns.

The anomaly detector uses pattern recognition to find anomalies, which are unusual log events. It uses the evaluationFrequency to compare current log events and patterns with trained baselines.

Fields within a pattern are called tokens. Fields that vary within a pattern, such as a request ID or timestamp, are referred to as dynamic tokens and represented by <*>.

The following is an example of a pattern:

[INFO] Request time: <*> ms

This pattern represents log events like [INFO] Request time: 327 ms and other similar log events that differ only by the number, in this csse 327. When the pattern is displayed, the different numbers are replaced by <*>

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->createLogAnomalyDetector([
    'anomalyVisibilityTime' => <integer>,
    'detectorName' => '<string>',
    'evaluationFrequency' => 'ONE_MIN|FIVE_MIN|TEN_MIN|FIFTEEN_MIN|THIRTY_MIN|ONE_HOUR',

CreateLogGroup

$result = $client->createLogGroup([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createLogGroupAsync([/* ... */]);

Creates a log group with the specified name. You can create up to 1,000,000 log groups per Region per account.

You must use the following guidelines when naming a log group:

• Log group names must be unique within a Region for an Amazon Web Services account.

• Log group names can be between 1 and 512 characters long.

• Log group names consist of the following characters: a-z, A-Z, 0-9, '_' (underscore), '-' (hyphen), '/' (forward slash), '.' (period), and '#' (number sign)

• Log group names can't start with the string aws/

When you create a log group, by default the log events in the log group do not expire. To set a retention policy so that events expire and are deleted after a specified time, use PutRetentionPolicy.

If you associate an KMS key with the log group, ingested data is encrypted using the KMS key. This association is stored as long as the data encrypted with the KMS key is still within CloudWatch Logs. This enables CloudWatch Logs to decrypt this data whenever it is requested.

If you attempt to associate a KMS key with the log group but the KMS key does not exist or the KMS key is disabled, you receive an InvalidParameterException error.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->createLogGroup([
    'kmsKeyId' => '<string>',
    'logGroupClass' => 'STANDARD|INFREQUENT_ACCESS',
    'logGroupName' => '<string>', // REQUIRED

There is no limit on the number of log streams that you can create for a log group. There is a limit of 50 TPS on CreateLogStream operations, after which transactions are throttled.

You must use the following guidelines when naming a log stream:

• Log stream names must be unique within the log group.

• Log stream names can be between 1 and 512 characters long.

• Don't use ':' (colon) or '*' (asterisk) characters.

DisassociateKmsKey

$result = $client->disassociateKmsKey([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->disassociateKmsKeyAsync([/* ... */]);

Disassociates the specified KMS key from the specified log group or from all CloudWatch Logs Insights query results in the account.

When you use DisassociateKmsKey, you specify either the logGroupName parameter or the resourceIdentifier parameter. You can't specify both of those parameters in the same operation.

• Specify the logGroupName parameter to stop using the KMS key to encrypt future log events ingested and stored in the log group. Instead, they will be encrypted with the default CloudWatch Logs method. The log events that were ingested while the key was associated with the log group are still encrypted with that key. Therefore, CloudWatch Logs will need permissions for the key whenever that data is accessed.

• Specify the resourceIdentifier parameter with the query-result resource to stop using the KMS key to encrypt the results of all future StartQuery operations in the account. They will instead be encrypted with the default CloudWatch Logs method. The results from queries that ran while the key was associated with the account are still encrypted with that key. Therefore, CloudWatch Logs will need permissions for the key whenever that data is accessed.

It can take up to 5 minutes for this operation to take effect.

FilterLogEvents

$result = $client->filterLogEvents([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->filterLogEventsAsync([/* ... */]);

Lists log events from the specified log group. You can list all the log events or filter the results using a filter pattern, a time range, and the name of the log stream.

You must have the logs:FilterLogEvents permission to perform this operation.

You can specify the log group to search by using either logGroupIdentifier or logGroupName. You must include one of these two parameters, but you can't include both.

By default, this operation returns as many log events as can fit in 1 MB (up to 10,000 log events) or all the events found within the specified time range. If the results include a token, that means there are more log events available. You can get additional results by specifying the token in a subsequent call. This operation can return empty results while there are more log events available through the token.

The returned log events are sorted by event timestamp, the timestamp when the event was ingested by CloudWatch Logs, and the ID of the PutLogEvents request.

If you are using CloudWatch cross-account observability, you can use this operation in a monitoring account and view data from the linked source accounts. For more information, see CloudWatch cross-account observability.

In the results, fields that start with @ are fields generated by CloudWatch Logs. For example, @timestamp is the timestamp of each log event. For more information about the fields that are generated by CloudWatch logs, see Supported Logs and Discovered Fields.

The response results are sorted by the frequency percentage, starting with the highest percentage.

If you are using CloudWatch cross-account observability, you can use this operation in a monitoring account and view data from the linked source accounts. For more information, see CloudWatch cross-account observability.

PutAccountPolicy

$result = $client->putAccountPolicy([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->putAccountPolicyAsync([/* ... */]);

Creates an account-level data protection policy or subscription filter policy that applies to all log groups or a subset of log groups in the account.

Data protection policy

A data protection policy can help safeguard sensitive data that's ingested by your log groups by auditing and masking the sensitive log data. Each account can have only one account-level data protection policy.

If you use PutAccountPolicy to create a data protection policy for your whole account, it applies to both existing log groups and all log groups that are created later in this account. The account-level policy is applied to existing log groups with eventual consistency. It might take up to 5 minutes before sensitive data in existing log groups begins to be masked.

By default, when a user views a log event that includes masked data, the sensitive data is replaced by asterisks. A user who has the logs:Unmask permission can use a GetLogEvents or FilterLogEvents operation with the unmask parameter set to true to view the unmasked log events. Users with the logs:Unmask can also view unmasked data in the CloudWatch Logs console by running a CloudWatch Logs Insights query with the unmask query command.

For more information, including a list of types of data that can be audited and masked, see Protect sensitive log data with masking.

To use the PutAccountPolicy operation for a data protection policy, you must be signed on with the logs:PutDataProtectionPolicy and logs:PutAccountPolicy permissions.

The PutAccountPolicy operation applies to all log groups in the account. You can use PutDataProtectionPolicy to create a data protection policy that applies to just one log group. If a log group has its own data protection policy and the account also has an account-level data protection policy, then the two policies are cumulative. Any sensitive term specified in either policy is masked.

Subscription filter policy

A subscription filter policy sets up a real-time feed of log events from CloudWatch Logs to other Amazon Web Services services. Account-level subscription filter policies apply to both existing log groups and log groups that are created later in this account. Supported destinations are Kinesis Data Streams, Firehose, and Lambda. When log events are sent to the receiving service, they are Base64 encoded and compressed with the GZIP format.

The following destinations are supported for subscription filters:

• An Kinesis Data Streams data stream in the same account as the subscription policy, for same-account delivery.

• An Firehose data stream in the same account as the subscription policy, for same-account delivery.

• A Lambda function in the same account as the subscription policy, for same-account delivery.

• A logical destination in a different account created with PutDestination, for cross-account delivery. Kinesis Data Streams and Firehose are supported as logical destinations.

Each account can have one account-level subscription filter policy. If you are updating an existing filter, you must specify the correct name in PolicyName. To perform a PutAccountPolicy subscription filter operation for any destination except a Lambda function, you must also have the iam:PassRole permission.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->putAccountPolicy([
    'policyDocument' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
    'policyName' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
    'policyType' => 'DATA_PROTECTION_POLICY|SUBSCRIPTION_FILTER_POLICY', // REQUIRED

PutDataProtectionPolicy

$result = $client->putDataProtectionPolicy([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->putDataProtectionPolicyAsync([/* ... */]);

Creates a data protection policy for the specified log group. A data protection policy can help safeguard sensitive data that's ingested by the log group by auditing and masking the sensitive log data.

By default, when a user views a log event that includes masked data, the sensitive data is replaced by asterisks. A user who has the logs:Unmask permission can use a GetLogEvents or FilterLogEvents operation with the unmask parameter set to true to view the unmasked log events. Users with the logs:Unmask can also view unmasked data in the CloudWatch Logs console by running a CloudWatch Logs Insights query with the unmask query command.

For more information, including a list of types of data that can be audited and masked, see Protect sensitive log data with masking.

The PutDataProtectionPolicy operation applies to only the specified log group. You can also use PutAccountPolicy to create an account-level data protection policy that applies to all log groups in the account, including both existing log groups and log groups that are created level. If a log group has its own data protection policy and the account also has an account-level data protection policy, then the two policies are cumulative. Any sensitive term specified in either policy is masked.

PutDeliveryDestination

$result = $client->putDeliveryDestination([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->putDeliveryDestinationAsync([/* ... */]);

Creates or updates a logical delivery destination. A delivery destination is an Amazon Web Services resource that represents an Amazon Web Services service that logs can be sent to. CloudWatch Logs, Amazon S3, and Firehose are supported as logs delivery destinations.

To configure logs delivery between a supported Amazon Web Services service and a destination, you must do the following:

• Create a delivery source, which is a logical object that represents the resource that is actually sending the logs. For more information, see PutDeliverySource.

• Use PutDeliveryDestination to create a delivery destination, which is a logical object that represents the actual delivery destination.

• If you are delivering logs cross-account, you must use PutDeliveryDestinationPolicy in the destination account to assign an IAM policy to the destination. This policy allows delivery to that destination.

• Use CreateDelivery to create a delivery by pairing exactly one delivery source and one delivery destination. For more information, see CreateDelivery.

You can configure a single delivery source to send logs to multiple destinations by creating multiple deliveries. You can also create multiple deliveries to configure multiple delivery sources to send logs to the same delivery destination.

Only some Amazon Web Services services support being configured as a delivery source. These services are listed as Supported [V2 Permissions] in the table at Enabling logging from Amazon Web Services services.

If you use this operation to update an existing delivery destination, all the current delivery destination parameters are overwritten with the new parameter values that you specify.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->putDeliveryDestination([
    'deliveryDestinationConfiguration' => [ // REQUIRED
        'destinationResourceArn' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
    ],

PutDeliveryDestinationPolicy

$result = $client->putDeliveryDestinationPolicy([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->putDeliveryDestinationPolicyAsync([/* ... */]);

Creates and assigns an IAM policy that grants permissions to CloudWatch Logs to deliver logs cross-account to a specified destination in this account. To configure the delivery of logs from an Amazon Web Services service in another account to a logs delivery destination in the current account, you must do the following:

• Create a delivery source, which is a logical object that represents the resource that is actually sending the logs. For more information, see PutDeliverySource.

• Create a delivery destination, which is a logical object that represents the actual delivery destination. For more information, see PutDeliveryDestination.

• Use this operation in the destination account to assign an IAM policy to the destination. This policy allows delivery to that destination.

• Create a delivery by pairing exactly one delivery source and one delivery destination. For more information, see CreateDelivery.

Only some Amazon Web Services services support being configured as a delivery source. These services are listed as Supported [V2 Permissions] in the table at Enabling logging from Amazon Web Services services.

The contents of the policy must include two statements. One statement enables general logs delivery, and the other allows delivery to the chosen destination. See the examples for the needed policies.

PutDestination

$result = $client->putDestination([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->putDestinationAsync([/* ... */]);

Creates or updates a destination. This operation is used only to create destinations for cross-account subscriptions.

A destination encapsulates a physical resource (such as an Amazon Kinesis stream). With a destination, you can subscribe to a real-time stream of log events for a different account, ingested using PutLogEvents.

Through an access policy, a destination controls what is written to it. By default, PutDestination does not set any access policy with the destination, which means a cross-account user cannot call PutSubscriptionFilter against this destination. To enable this, the destination owner must call PutDestinationPolicy after PutDestination.

To perform a PutDestination operation, you must also have the iam:PassRole permission.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->putDestination([
    'destinationName' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
    'roleArn' => '<string>', // REQUIRED

PutLogEvents

$result = $client->putLogEvents([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->putLogEventsAsync([/* ... */]);

Uploads a batch of log events to the specified log stream.

The batch of events must satisfy the following constraints:

• The maximum batch size is 1,048,576 bytes. This size is calculated as the sum of all event messages in UTF-8, plus 26 bytes for each log event.

• None of the log events in the batch can be more than 2 hours in the future.

• None of the log events in the batch can be more than 14 days in the past. Also, none of the log events can be from earlier than the retention period of the log group.

• The log events in the batch must be in chronological order by their timestamp. The timestamp is the time that the event occurred, expressed as the number of milliseconds after Jan 1, 1970 00:00:00 UTC. (In Amazon Web Services Tools for PowerShell and the Amazon Web Services SDK for .NET, the timestamp is specified in .NET format: yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss. For example, 2017-09-15T13:45:30.)

• A batch of log events in a single request cannot span more than 24 hours. Otherwise, the operation fails.

• Each log event can be no larger than 256 KB.

• The maximum number of log events in a batch is 10,000.

• The quota of five requests per second per log stream has been removed. Instead, PutLogEvents actions are throttled based on a per-second per-account quota. You can request an increase to the per-second throttling quota by using the Service Quotas service.

If a call to PutLogEvents returns "UnrecognizedClientException" the most likely cause is a non-valid Amazon Web Services access key ID or secret key.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->putLogEvents([
    'logEvents' => [ // REQUIRED

PutQueryDefinition

$result = $client->putQueryDefinition([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->putQueryDefinitionAsync([/* ... */]);

Creates or updates a query definition for CloudWatch Logs Insights. For more information, see Analyzing Log Data with CloudWatch Logs Insights.

To update a query definition, specify its queryDefinitionId in your request. The values of name, queryString, and logGroupNames are changed to the values that you specify in your update operation. No current values are retained from the current query definition. For example, imagine updating a current query definition that includes log groups. If you don't specify the logGroupNames parameter in your update operation, the query definition changes to contain no log groups.

You must have the logs:PutQueryDefinition permission to be able to perform this operation.

PutSubscriptionFilter

$result = $client->putSubscriptionFilter([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->putSubscriptionFilterAsync([/* ... */]);

Creates or updates a subscription filter and associates it with the specified log group. With subscription filters, you can subscribe to a real-time stream of log events ingested through PutLogEvents and have them delivered to a specific destination. When log events are sent to the receiving service, they are Base64 encoded and compressed with the GZIP format.

The following destinations are supported for subscription filters:

• An Amazon Kinesis data stream belonging to the same account as the subscription filter, for same-account delivery.

• A logical destination created with PutDestination that belongs to a different account, for cross-account delivery. We currently support Kinesis Data Streams and Firehose as logical destinations.

• An Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose delivery stream that belongs to the same account as the subscription filter, for same-account delivery.

• An Lambda function that belongs to the same account as the subscription filter, for same-account delivery.

Each log group can have up to two subscription filters associated with it. If you are updating an existing filter, you must specify the correct name in filterName.

To perform a PutSubscriptionFilter operation for any destination except a Lambda function, you must also have the iam:PassRole permission.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->putSubscriptionFilter([
    'destinationArn' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
    'distribution' => 'Random|ByLogStream',
    'filterName' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
    'filterPattern' => '<string>', // REQUIRED

StartLiveTail

$result = $client->startLiveTail([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->startLiveTailAsync([/* ... */]);

Starts a Live Tail streaming session for one or more log groups. A Live Tail session returns a stream of log events that have been recently ingested in the log groups. For more information, see Use Live Tail to view logs in near real time.

The response to this operation is a response stream, over which the server sends live log events and the client receives them.

The following objects are sent over the stream:

• A single LiveTailSessionStart object is sent at the start of the session.

• Every second, a LiveTailSessionUpdate object is sent. Each of these objects contains an array of the actual log events.

  If no new log events were ingested in the past second, the LiveTailSessionUpdate object will contain an empty array.

  The array of log events contained in a LiveTailSessionUpdate can include as many as 500 log events. If the number of log events matching the request exceeds 500 per second, the log events are sampled down to 500 log events to be included in each LiveTailSessionUpdate object.

  If your client consumes the log events slower than the server produces them, CloudWatch Logs buffers up to 10 LiveTailSessionUpdate events or 5000 log events, after which it starts dropping the oldest events.

• A SessionStreamingException object is returned if an unknown error occurs on the server side.

• A SessionTimeoutException object is returned when the session times out, after it has been kept open for three hours.

For examples of using an SDK to start a Live Tail session, see Start a Live Tail session using an Amazon Web Services SDK.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->startLiveTail([
    'logEventFilterPattern' => '<string>',
    'logGroupIdentifiers' => ['<string>', ...], // REQUIRED

Using an EventParsingIterator

To use an EventParsingIterator, you will need to loop over the events it will generate and check the top-level field to determine which type of event it is.

foreach($result['responseStream'] as $event) {
    if (isset($event['SessionStreamingException'])) {
        // Handle the 'SessionStreamingException' event.
    } else if (isset($event['SessionTimeoutException'])) {
        // Handle the 'SessionTimeoutException' event.
    } else if (isset($event['sessionStart'])) {
        // Handle the 'sessionStart' event.
    } else if (isset($event['sessionUpdate'])) {
        // Handle the 'sessionUpdate' event.
    }

StartQuery

$result = $client->startQuery([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->startQueryAsync([/* ... */]);

Schedules a query of a log group using CloudWatch Logs Insights. You specify the log group and time range to query and the query string to use.

For more information, see CloudWatch Logs Insights Query Syntax.

After you run a query using StartQuery, the query results are stored by CloudWatch Logs. You can use GetQueryResults to retrieve the results of a query, using the queryId that StartQuery returns.

If you have associated a KMS key with the query results in this account, then StartQuery uses that key to encrypt the results when it stores them. If no key is associated with query results, the query results are encrypted with the default CloudWatch Logs encryption method.

Queries time out after 60 minutes of runtime. If your queries are timing out, reduce the time range being searched or partition your query into a number of queries.

If you are using CloudWatch cross-account observability, you can use this operation in a monitoring account to start a query in a linked source account. For more information, see CloudWatch cross-account observability. For a cross-account StartQuery operation, the query definition must be defined in the monitoring account.

You can have up to 30 concurrent CloudWatch Logs insights queries, including queries that have been added to dashboards.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->startQuery([
    'endTime' => <integer>, // REQUIRED
    'limit' => <integer>,
    'logGroupIdentifiers' => ['<string>', ...],

TagLogGroup

$result = $client->tagLogGroup([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->tagLogGroupAsync([/* ... */]);

The TagLogGroup operation is on the path to deprecation. We recommend that you use TagResource instead.

Adds or updates the specified tags for the specified log group.

To list the tags for a log group, use ListTagsForResource. To remove tags, use UntagResource.

For more information about tags, see Tag Log Groups in Amazon CloudWatch Logs in the Amazon CloudWatch Logs User Guide.

CloudWatch Logs doesn’t support IAM policies that prevent users from assigning specified tags to log groups using the aws:Resource/key-name or aws:TagKeys condition keys. For more information about using tags to control access, see Controlling access to Amazon Web Services resources using tags.

TagResource

$result = $client->tagResource([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->tagResourceAsync([/* ... */]);

Assigns one or more tags (key-value pairs) to the specified CloudWatch Logs resource. Currently, the only CloudWatch Logs resources that can be tagged are log groups and destinations.

Tags can help you organize and categorize your resources. You can also use them to scope user permissions by granting a user permission to access or change only resources with certain tag values.

Tags don't have any semantic meaning to Amazon Web Services and are interpreted strictly as strings of characters.

You can use the TagResource action with a resource that already has tags. If you specify a new tag key for the alarm, this tag is appended to the list of tags associated with the alarm. If you specify a tag key that is already associated with the alarm, the new tag value that you specify replaces the previous value for that tag.

You can associate as many as 50 tags with a CloudWatch Logs resource.

$result = $client->tagResource([
    'resourceArn' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
    'tags' => ['<string>', ...], // REQUIRED
