  • Article

This article explains how to use the usage monitoring features available in your account console.

To access the Usage page, as an account admin go to the account console and click the Usage icon.

Import a usage dashboard

Important

This feature is in Public Preview.

Account admins can import cost management AI/BI dashboards to any Unity Catalog-enabled workspace in their account.

Usage dashboard

The dashboard contains:

  • Usage breakdown by billing origin product
  • Usage breakdown by SKU name
  • Usage analysis based on custom tags
  • Usage analysis of the most expensive usage

To import the dashboard:

  1. From the account console, click the Usage tab.
  2. Click the Import dashboard button.
  3. Select whether you want the dashboard to reflect the entire account’s usage or just the usage from the single workspace.
  4. Select the workspace where you want to send the dashboard.
  5. Click Import.

After you click Import, you are redirected to the new dashboard. The dashboard is fully customizable and can be published like any other dashboard. You can also reimport a new version of the dashboard at any time.

For more information on AI/BI dashboards, see Dashboards.

Note

To use the imported dashboard, a user must have the SELECT permissions on the system.billing.usage and system.billing.list_prices tables. The dashboard’s data is subject to the usage table’s retention policies. See Which system tables are available?.
