Create and attach tags to resources by using TagResources - Auto Scaling - Alibaba Cloud - Auto Scaling

Operation description

You can attach up to 20 tags to a scaling group.

**

Note Before you attach tags, Alibaba Cloud verifies the current number of tags on the resource. If the addition would exceed the maximum allowed number of tags, an error is returned.
If you set Tags.Propagate to true, tags on the scaling group are automatically propagated to new instances created in the scaling group. Existing instances are not affected.
If both the scaling configuration and the scaling group have tags, and tag propagation from the scaling group is enabled, newly created instances follow these rules:
- Instances inherit tags from both the scaling configuration that created them and the scaling group (if propagation is enabled).
- If a tag key exists in both the scaling configuration and the scaling group, the scaling configuration tag takes precedence.

RAM authorization

The table below describes the authorization required to call this API. You can define it in a Resource Access Management (RAM) policy. The table's columns are detailed below:

Action: The actions can be used in the Action element of RAM permission policy statements to grant permissions to perform the operation.
API: The API that you can call to perform the action.
Access level: The predefined level of access granted for each API. Valid values: create, list, get, update, and delete.
Resource type: The type of the resource that supports authorization to perform the action. It indicates if the action supports resource-level permission. The specified resource must be compatible with the action. Otherwise, the policy will be ineffective.
- For APIs with resource-level permissions, required resource types are marked with an asterisk (*). Specify the corresponding Alibaba Cloud Resource Name (ARN) in the Resource element of the policy.
- For APIs without resource-level permissions, it is shown as All Resources. Use an asterisk (*) in the Resource element of the policy.
Condition key: The condition keys defined by the service. The key allows for granular control, applying to either actions alone or actions associated with specific resources. In addition to service-specific condition keys, Alibaba Cloud provides a set of common condition keys applicable across all RAM-supported services.
Dependent action: The dependent actions required to run the action. To complete the action, the RAM user or the RAM role must have the permissions to perform all dependent actions.
