Web Browser: Firefox

Check https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/user_guide/playbooks_tags.html#adding-tags-to-roles, I'd expect you're adding the tags to the role import, which applies it to all tasks in the role.

@wenottingham Thanks for reply! I don't add tags to role import. Our playbook:

bash-4.4# cat vcd.yml

name: vCloudDirectorAnsible hosts: localhost environment: env_api_version: 35.0 env_verify_ssl_certs: false roles:
- vappvm

And in vappvm role tasks, I add "create-master" tag to individual tasks. Already try include_role in playbook but result is the same.

I'm having a similar issue with AWX 15.1 not respecting tags in the roles: section of my playbook. My understanding is that tags applied to roles in the roles: section are inherited to all role's tasks, and in fact results in expected behavior when running ansible-playbook from cli (--skip-tags=ipxe_sync,image_sync skips the entire roles in the following code snippit)

---
- hosts: all
  gather_facts: yes
  roles:
    - role: facts
      tags: custom_facts
    - role: ipxe
      tags: ipxe_sync
    - role: automaticupdates
    - role: win10image
      tags: image_sync

When I run a job template from AWX using the same tags in the Skip Tags field, these tags show up and are displayed on the details of the job, but then the output still shows each role running instead of being skipped.
