What is proper syntax for 'rdk modify --tags' json argument
Trying to apply tags to AWS Config custom rule using RDK. Docs show the following but can't find any examples actual syntax. --tags [optional] JSON for tags to be applied to all CFN created resources.
Tried:
- rdk modify MFA_ENABLED_RULE --tags '{"Site":"Chicago"}', but 'deploy' threw 'Invalid type for parameter Tags, value: {'Site': 'Chicago'}, type: <class 'dict'>, valid types: <class 'list'>, <class 'tuple'>'
- 'rdk modify MFA_ENABLED_RULE --tags '{"Key":"Site","Value":"Chicago"}'', but 'deploy' threw 'Invalid type for parameter Tags, value: {'Site': 'Chicago'}, type: <class 'dict'>, valid types: <class 'list'>, <class 'tuple'>'

The error messages indicate that the --tags parameter expects a list or tuple of dictionaries, where each dictionary contains Key and Value pairs for the tags. Here is the correct syntax for using the --tags parameter with rdk modify:
rdk modify MFA_ENABLED_RULE --tags '[{"Key": "Site", "Value": "Chicago"}]'
In this command, the --tags parameter is provided with a JSON array (list) containing a single dictionary with Key and Value pairs for the tag. This should be accepted by the RDK deploy command without throwing any errors.
