How to add a tag to resource "shutdown-computevm" of DevTestLab

Question

Hi,

I want to ask how to add a tag to "shutdown-computevm-(optional computer name)" (VM's Auto-Shutdown).

I assigned the Azure Policy "Require a tag and its value on resources" to my subscription.

[https://portal.azure.com/#blade/Microsoft_Azure_Policy/PolicyDetailBlade/definitionId/%2Fproviders%2FMicrosoft.Authorization%2FpolicyDefinitions%2F1e30110a-5ceb-460c-a204-c1c3969c6d62

I created a VM with specified "Tags", and then I tried to activate "Auto-Shutdown".

But the error that show can't update the schedule was displayed. Because of policy deny to update the schedule without "Tags".

To solve this error, I think I have to add a specified tag to Auto-Shutdown's resource.

I'd like to ask someone's help to fix it.

I can solve this problem for myself.

I create custom policy. bacause I try to obviate the need that adding tag to "shutdown-computevm".

"policyRule": {
      "if": {
        "allOf": [
          {
            "not": {
              "field": "[concat('tags[', parameters('tagName'), ']')]",
              "exists": "false"
            }
          },
          {
            "field": "type",
            "notEquals": "Microsoft.Devtestlab/schedule"
          }
        ]
      },
      "then": {
        "effect": "deny"
      }
    }
