Amazon CloudWatch now supports tags on dashboards

Amazon CloudWatch now supports tagging for dashboards, allowing teams to organize, categorize, and control access using key-value tag pairs. The PutDashboard API accepts an optional Tags parameter for up to 50 tags at creation time. Existing dashboards can be managed via TagResource, UntagResource, and ListTagsForResource APIs. Use cases include grouping dashboards by team, project, or environment, implementing attribute-based access control via IAM, and filtering dashboards in AWS Resource Explorer. The feature is available at no additional cost in all AWS regions where CloudWatch is available.
