Terraform: Add Tags Support for Inline AWS EBS Device

[tylerFowler]

I noticed that when you define an EBS device inline with an aws instance like so:

resource "aws_instance" "web" {
  # definition...
  ebs_block_device {
    # EBS info...
  }
}

You cannot specify tags, whereas if you look at the created resource in the AWS console it definitely supports tags. Perhaps this is because double nested blocks aren't supported but in any case I'd really like to see it supported.

I second this. Please add tagging for inline EBS devices.

Any news on if or when this may get implemented? There really is no practical way to tag EBS volumes right now...and tagging EBS volumes is a big part of providing a quality environment!

+1! Please, this feature is quite important for us!

We need this as well for chargebacks and iam permissions. It would also be helpful if the ebs_block_device supported counts.

Hi @tylerFowler

Apologies for the delay in responding here - this is already a requested feature in #3531 - I am going to close this as a duplicate of that so that we can track all information in this issue

Thanks again
