I got one step further. Using this debug statement, I was able to get the
list of resource_tags:
debug: msg="{{vpc.subnets | map(attribute='resource_tags') |
map(attribute='tier') | list}}"
I'm not sure if this is the right way to go about getting this information,
so please let me know if there is a better way.
Unfortunately, I'm still having difficulty having the task only pull the
subnet id for the subnets tagged as tier=elb. Can I use something after
the pipe instead of list to limit the results, or do I need to use
with_items, with_dict? Thanks.
