**Example 1: Tag an existing resource**  
The following command tags an existing resource.

```
aws batch tag-resource --resource-arn resource_ARN --tags team=devs
```

**Example 2: Untag an existing resource**  
The following command deletes a tag from an existing resource.

```

```

**Example 3: List tags for a resource**
