I'm uploading objects to my S3 bucket using the S3Connector (Action: Upload) and I see that I can add metadata but it looks like I can't add any tags for my new object. The lifecycle rules in my bucket depend on my objects being properly tagged. Is there any way to achieve this?

How to add tags to an S3 object?

I've not tested it myself, but look into if it's possible to use the Metadata headers in the S3Connector:
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/user-guide/add-object-metadata.html
Last resort would be to use the boto3 libraries (they're already installed with FME) in a PythonCaller to manually add tags after the S3Connector.

When using custom metadata headers the key-value pairs still fall under the "Metadata" property of the object and not the "Tags" property. It would be nice to have a new section in the S3Connector similar to the Metadata one but specifically for tags.
For now, I think the best option is to go with the PythonCaller approach. Thanks!

Interesting, thanks for sharing that.
