Creates or updates a metric stream. Metric streams can automatically stream CloudWatch metrics to AWS destinations including Amazon S3 and to many third-party solutions.
For more information, see Using Metric Streams .
To create a metric stream, you must be logged on to an account that has the iam:PassRole permission and either the CloudWatchFullAccess policy or the cloudwatch:PutMetricStream permission.
When you create or update a metric stream, you choose one of the following:
Stream metrics from all metric namespaces in the account.
Stream metrics from all metric namespaces in the account, except for the namespaces that you list in ExcludeFilters .
Stream metrics from only the metric namespaces that you list in IncludeFilters .
When you use PutMetricStream to create a new metric stream, the stream is created in the running state. If you use it to update an existing stream, the state of the stream is not changed.

If you are creating a new metric stream, this is the name for the new stream. The name must be different than the names of other metric streams in this account and Region.
If you are updating a metric stream, specify the name of that stream here.
Valid characters are A-Z, a-z, 0-9, "-" and "_".

list
A list of key-value pairs to associate with the metric stream. You can associate as many as 50 tags with a metric stream.
Tags can help you organize and categorize your resources. You can also use them to scope user permissions by granting a user permission to access or change only resources with certain tag values.
(dict) --
A key-value pair associated with a CloudWatch resource.
Key (string) -- [REQUIRED]
