CloudFormation tags for instances created by LaunchConfig

Viewed 2230

How can I add a Name tag to instances created by CloudFormation's LaunchConfig? I thought it would be in this section, but it is not an option.

{
   "Type" : "AWS::AutoScaling::LaunchConfiguration",
   "Properties" : {
      "AssociatePublicIpAddress" : Boolean,
      "BlockDeviceMappings" : [ BlockDeviceMapping, ... ],
      "ClassicLinkVPCId" : String,
      "ClassicLinkVPCSecurityGroups" : [ String, ... ],
      "EbsOptimized" : Boolean,
      "IamInstanceProfile" : String,
      "ImageId" : String,
      "InstanceId" : String,
      "InstanceMonitoring" : Boolean,
      "InstanceType" : String,
      "KernelId" : String,
      "KeyName" : String,
      "PlacementTenancy" : String,
      "RamDiskId" : String,
      "SecurityGroups" : [ SecurityGroup, ... ],
      "SpotPrice" : String,
      "UserData" : String
   }
}

I wondered if I should create an instance resource and put settings in there, and then link it to the launchconfig, but I can't find any documentation to support that idea.
