Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to add a dimension that contains the value of the instances tag where the cloudwatch agent is running. Let's say the ec2 instance is tagged with Role = X and I would like to append the dimension Role that contains the value of the tag Role that is retrived in this way
Describe alternatives you've considered
I haven't been able to find any config file examples that showcase the line from the documentation
If you specify a value that depends on Amazon EC2 metadata and you use proxies, you must make sure that the server can access the endpoint for Amazon EC2. For more information about these endpoints, see Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) in the Amazon Web Services General Reference.
