Filter by tag doesn't work in AWS Budgets and Cost Explorer

0

Hello,

I want to create a new Budget (Cost Budget) which would be used to track resources tagged with a tag "Product" (which has to have some specific values).

I'm not able to create a such Budget from AWS web console, as I'm getting "No tags found" - see the screenshot below

No tags found in filters

However, I have some resources and they have tags, for example this EC2 instance:

Some tags on an EC2 instance

So in the web console I wasn't able to add any tag, and create the Budget. Then I tried with Terraform, and I was able to create the Budget, but it doesn't show any cost.

On the screenshot below you can see the new Budget as the 1st in the list (the 2nd one was created earlier and it's a simple Budget with no filters)

The Budget (created with Terraform) have the following filters:

Filters for the Budget

Also, nothing appears in the chart:

I noticed the similar behavior in the Cost Explorer - when I try set Dimension to Tag, I see "No tags" in the Choose Tag field.

I don't think there may be any issue with my permissions, as I have AdministratorAccess. And the tags were added long time ago, so I don't think there's any delay issue or something like that.

To get tags displayed under filter, You must activate tags to use them. A tag is a label that you can use to organize your resource costs and track them on a detailed level. There are AWS generated tags and user-defined tags. If you activated any tags, choose a resource tag.

For more information, see Activating the AWS-Generated Cost Allocation Tags and Activating User-Defined Cost Allocation Tags.

Hi, You have to configure cost allocation tags in order to set tags as a dimension under cost explorer.

Refer: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/awsaccountbilling/latest/aboutv2/activating-tags.html

NOTE: After you create and apply user-defined tags to your resources, it can take up to 24 hours for the tags to appear on your cost allocation tags page for activation. After you select your tags for activation, it can take up to 24 hours for tags to activate.
