My automations are tagged in system manager AWS, but I can't find them

Question

"StartAutomationExecution":
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/systems-manager/latest/APIReference/API_StartAutomationExecution.html

The "StartAutomationExecution" call supports tagging, but I could not find a way to read it from the "GetAutomationExecution" and "DescribeAutomationExecutions" calls either.

What is the best way to retrieve the tag I put on the automation that was executed?

Answer

If you want to find the tag key/value, you can use the [ListTagsForResources](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/systems-manager/latest/APIReference/API_ListTagsForResource.html) that lists tags for a specified resource like this:
```
{
    "ResourceType": "Automation",
    "ResourceId": "EXAMPLE_ID"
}
```
You can to retrieve the execution with the tag key using [DescribeAutomationExecutions](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/systems-manager/latest/APIReference/API_DescribeAutomationExecutions.html) like this:
```
{
    "Filters":
        [
            {
                "Key": "TagKey",
                "Values": [ "EXAMPLE_KEY" ]
            }
        ]
}
```
