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.
Tag Analyzer
1. Log in to your CloudAware account → Tag Analyzer
2. Select a cloud provider. Pick the object type from the list (e.g. AWS EC2 Instances).
3. Review the column 'Not Tagged Objects'. Click the number of objects to drill down into Objects Explorer.
4. Select resources a tag to be applied to and click TAG AWS EC2 INSTANCES.
5. Review the existing tags. Click + ADD TAG to apply a new tag.
New tags and their values will immediately appear in your AWS Console.
Other tagging options
You can also apply tags using list views and 'Details' tab on a resource.
