[Hubs] Extract important tags

[flanakin]

📝 Scenario

As a FinOps practitioner, I need to add separate columns for important tags in order to build custom reports based on my allocation needs

💎 Solution

• [ ] Add a tags array into the config/settings.json file to track the tags to extract.
• [ ] Update the CostDetails table to parse those out into separate columns.

Reports in the 0.6 release now include a list of tags that can be promoted into separate columns. This is a very lightweight approach here and does not address the full spectrum of tag management needs, like handling typos and case-sensitivity.

I'm interested in the progression of this feature, @flanakin. I have a client that's implementing the FinOps Toolkit (Hub architecture).

They have tags set at the Subscription level (not using inheritance for downstream), but none of these tags appear in the x_TagsDictionary record/table.

Whereas tags that are applied to the resources within the Subscription are present.

Any updates/ETA when the export might include the tag data from the Subscription level?

@AErmie just responded to another post on this. This sounds like a bug in Cost Management. If you're still seeing this in the latest release, I would create a support request. If you want to create a dedicated issue for that, I can at least track it for awareness with others just in case it is a common issue.

I'd love to know if anyone else is hitting this issue.

Thanks @flanakin. I replied in the other post as well, to keep everything together.
