Tagging Rules

The Tagging Rules report allows you to enforce your tagging policy across your AWS deployment by creating rules that will ensure your resources contain specific tag keys and values.


Procedure

  1. Launch CloudCheckr.
  2. Select an account from your Accounts List page.
  3. From the left navigation pane, choose Cost > Tags (from Detailed Billing) > Tagging Rules.
  4. From the Tagging Rules page, click the green + New Rule button to open the Tagging Rule Builder page.

  5. Type a name for your rule.

    Since CloudCheckr will refer to the rule name in the Improperly Tagged Resources report, provide a unique and easy-to-identify name.

  6. Define a tag key and tag value(s) for your rule.

    Click the buttons to see some examples of tag rules:

  7. In the Region, Resource, and Account list boxes, select an option or options to refine your rule by location, resource type, or AWS account.

    Click to see a complete list of options.

  8. Click Create Rule .

    You can add as many rules to your account as you want.

  9. Reprocess your billing report for any previous months where you applied a rule.
