Tag events rule AWS - Cloudformation

Question

Cloudformation doesn't support tags for event rules, and I heard somewhere that there's a workaround using cloud formation stacks but I haven't been able to find how exactly.

I know I could use AWS CLI, or tag the resource manually after it's created but I would like to know if there is a workaround using CloudFormation only.

Thanks.

You can create a custom resource using AWS CloudFormation.

Here’s a blog post describing the process and a GitHub project that you might want to look into for examples.
