Which two steps are required to generate a report detailing specific cost allocation tags when creating a Monthly Cost Allocation report?
(Choose two.)
Use AWS CloudTrail to export the events for the specified resources.
Use an AWS Lambda function to read the resources’ metadata, and write the specified tags to a DynamoDB table.
Activate the ג€requestedג€ tags by clicking Manage report tags on the Billing Preferences page.
Select the checkbox for Cost Allocation Report in the AWS account’s Billing Management Console.
Create a new Budget using the Billing Management Console, use the ג€Include costs related to Tagsג€ feature, and select the requested tags.
Explanations:
AWS CloudTrail logs API calls and activities, but it is not used for generating cost allocation reports or managing tags.
An AWS Lambda function to read metadata and store tags in DynamoDB is not a required step for generating cost allocation reports.
Activating the requested tags via the Billing Preferences page ensures they are available for use in cost allocation reports.
Enabling the “Cost Allocation Report” in the Billing Management Console is essential for generating the report.
Creating a Budget with the “Include costs related to Tags” feature is not necessary for generating a Monthly Cost Allocation report, though it can help track spending for tagged resources.
Based on what I know, the answer is:
Activate the ג€requestedג€ tags by clicking Manage report tags on the Billing Preferences page.
