AWS Resource Explorer now provides filtering on resources that support tags

Posted on: May 20, 2024

Today, AWS announces a new filter in AWS Resource Explorer to search for resources that support tags. This allows you to understand which resources can and cannot be tagged in order to better evaluate your tagging coverage in your organization or account.

Currently, customers can use tag:none to view resources in their account that do not have tags so they can determine their tagging coverage across all resources. This query may return resources that cannot be tagged. Now, customers can use resourcetype.supports:tags in their search query to only return resources that are taggable.

For more information about the AWS Regions where Resource Explorer is available, see the AWS Region table.
