Hi, any update on the issue?

[dolftax]

@bflad Any update on the same? This is blocking our terraform migration rollout in production.

Thanks.

I marked this as documentation because the top level tags argument (as described in the original issue comment) applies to the Spot Instance Request itself, not any launched instance. The feature enhancement of tagging the launched instance can be found at: #32

I will submit a PR to call this out in the documentation.
