Amazon S3: Add Tag To Bucket

Description

This step adds a tag (key-value pair) to an existing S3 bucket. Each bucket can hold up to 50 tags, and if you add a tag with the same key as an existing one, the new value replaces the old value. Use this step in workflows that apply metadata for cost tracking, organize buckets by project or environment, or enforce tagging policies as part of governance automation.

Notes:
  • Each S3 bucket has a tag set. A tag set contains all of the tags that are assigned to that bucket. A tag set can contain as many as 50 tags, or it can be empty. Keys must be unique within a tag set, but values in a tag set do not have to be unique. For example, you can have the same value in tag sets named project/Trinity and cost-center/Trinity.

  • Within a bucket, if you add a tag that has the same key as an existing tag, the new value overwrites the old value.
