Code Sampleas

Adding base required tags to Resource (Virtual Machine):

$tags = @{
    "CreatedOn"        = "10/14/2021"
    "Criticality"      = "2" 
    "Application"      = "Application Name"
    "BusinessOwner"    = "Full Name seperate names with /"
    "TechnicalContact" = "Full Name"
    "PatchingWindow"   = "Patching Time Window"
    "PatchingDOW"      = "Days of the week Patches can be applied like MTWTFSS"
    "Compliance"       = "Y"
    "Environment"      = "Production"
    "IAC"              = "N"
}
$res = Get-AzResource -Name servername -ResourceType Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines
New-AzTag -ResourceId $res.id -Tag $tags

Use OSDisk to estimate the CreatedOn tag for a VM

Set-Azcontext -Subscription SubscriptionName | Out-Null
$vms = Get-AzVM
$tagName = 'CreatedOn'
ForEach ($vm in $vms) {
    $dskInfo = get-azdisk -Name $vm.StorageProfile.OsDisk.Name
    $tagValue = '{0:MM/dd/yyyy}' -f $dskInfo.TimeCreated
    $vm.Name
    If ($vm.tags.Keys -contains $tagName) {
        "`tTag Exists"
    }
    Else {
        "`tWill set CreatedOn Tag for {0} on {1}" -f $vm.Name, $tagValue
        $vm.Tags.Add($tagName, $tagValue)
        Set-AzResource -ResourceId $vm.Id -Tag $vm.tags -Force
    }
}

Working on generic master list.

Other resources such as AKS can include resource specific tags

Should Owner be renamed to BusinessOwner or treat them seperate?
