Hello! How to import tags from ansible roles into a tower? I add the tag in the ansible roles.  
Checkin:  
ansible-playbook -i stage rsyslog.yml --list-tags{/code} And I get list of all of my tags.  
play # 1 (rsyslog): rsyslog TAGS:   
TASK TAGS: [rsyslog\_config, rsyslog\_install, update\_firewall  
but there is not a single tag in the drop-down list of my AWX template.  
Please help! Thank you!

We don’t discover tags from your playbooks, it’s just an entry field that remembers what you’ve typed. You have to provide them yourself. There’s a little question mark on the UI element that explains how to enter the tags for the template.
