tagResource

Associate a set of tags with an Amazon DynamoDB resource. You can then activate these user-defined tags so that they appear on the Billing and Cost Management console for cost allocation tracking. You can call TagResource up to five times per second, per account.

• TagResource is an asynchronous operation. If you issue a ListTagsOfResource request immediately after a TagResource request, DynamoDB might return your previous tag set, if there was one, or an empty tag set. This is because ListTagsOfResource uses an eventually consistent query, and the metadata for your tags or table might not be available at that moment. Wait for a few seconds, and then try the ListTagsOfResource request again.

• The application or removal of tags using TagResource and UntagResource APIs is eventually consistent. ListTagsOfResource API will only reflect the changes after a few seconds.
