For a record that does not contain a simple value (i.e. starting with the tagset phrase), the plugin returns no such attribute.
Example of configuration fragment:
<record>
my_json {"hostname":"${tagset_name}","instance_id":"${instance_id}","instance_type":"${instance_type}"}
</record>
So they want to get JSON format for the record, it is not possible to use tagset_ (the others like instance_id - not tag - work).
Warn in log:
[warn]: #0 ec2-metadata: unknown placeholder ${tagset_name} found in a tag {...}
I've made a simple proposal to change to #50
