Info

CloudAware Tag Analyzer allows you to review your tagging coverage across all clouds and tag your resources directly from CloudAware account.


Requirements


AWS

To tag your AWS resources from CloudAware, download CloudAware Tagging policy: Admin → AWS Accounts → ADD AMAZON ACCOUNT → Using Access & Secret Keys → select Tagging in 'Please use one of those'. Review and apply the policy.


Azure

To tag your Azure resources from CloudAware, create a custom role in your Azure portal using CLI or Rest API. The role should include a ‘modify’ permission granted for all resource types (e.g. Azure Virtual Machine) you would like to tag further. Assign the role to CloudAware.


GCP

Billing Tags: Google Cloud Platform does not provide the cost data split by instance out of the box. In order for CloudAware to display the cost on an instance level, every GCE instance in your environment needs to have a tag (e.g. “instance-name: actual-name-of-this-instance”) applied.
