Description

Currently, there is no way to set the propagate tags setting of an AWS Batch Job Definition as documented in the job definition parameters and job definition template.

Using the Terraform Configuration below shows that, by default, the propagate tags setting is disabled (i.e. set to false).

New or Affected Resource(s)

• aws_batch_job_definition

Potential Terraform Configuration

locals {
  tags = {
    "tag1" = "value1",
    "tag2" = "value2"

}

data "aws_iam_policy_document" "ecs_tasks_assume" {
  statement {
    effect = "Allow"
    actions = [
    "sts:AssumeRole"]

    principals {
      type = "Service"
      identifiers = [
      "ecs-tasks.amazonaws.com"]
    }
  }
}

resource "aws_batch_job_definition" "log_processor" {
  name = "test-job-definition"
  type = "container"

  timeout {
    attempt_duration_seconds = 600
  }
