Basic Parameters

ParameterDescription
AWS RegionEnter the desired AWS Region.
If no Region is specified, and the requested service supports Regions, AWS routes the request to us-east-1 by default.
Resource IDsThe IDs of the resources, separated by spaces.

Constraints: Up to 1000 resource IDs. We recommend breaking up this request into smaller batches.
TagsThe tags to delete. Specify a tag key and an optional tag value to delete specific tags. If you specify a tag key without a tag value, we delete any tag with this key regardless of its value. If you specify a tag key with an empty string as the tag value, we delete the tag only if its value is an empty string.

If you omit this parameter, we delete all user-defined tags for the specified resources. We do not delete Amazon Web Services-generated tags (tags that have the aws: prefix).

Example:
[
{
"Key": "string",
"Value": "string"
}
]

Advanced Parameters

ParameterDescription
Disable XML To JSON Auto ConvertWhen checked, XML responses are not automatically converted into JSON format.
Dry RunChecks whether you have the required permissions for the action, without actually making the request, and provides an error response. If you have the required permissions, the error response is DryRunOperation. Otherwise, it is UnauthorizedOperation.
