/AWS1/CL_CEX=>GETCOSTANDUSAGEWITHRESOURCES()

About GetCostAndUsageWithResources

Retrieves cost and usage metrics with resources for your account. You can specify which cost and usage-related metric, such as BlendedCosts or UsageQuantity, that you want the request to return. You can also filter and group your data by various dimensions, such as SERVICE or AZ, in a specific time range. For a complete list of valid dimensions, see the GetDimensionValues operation. Management account in an organization in Organizations have access to all member accounts.

Hourly granularity is only available for EC2-Instances (Elastic Compute Cloud) resource-level data. All other resource-level data is available at daily granularity.

This is an opt-in only feature. You can enable this feature from the Cost Explorer Settings page. For information about how to access the Settings page, see Controlling Access for Cost Explorer in the Billing and Cost Management User Guide.

Method Signature

IMPORTING

Required arguments:

IO_TIMEPERIOD TYPE REF TO /AWS1/CL_CEXDATEINTERVAL /AWS1/CL_CEXDATEINTERVAL

Sets the start and end dates for retrieving Amazon Web Services costs. The range must be within the last 14 days (the start date cannot be earlier than 14 days ago). The start date is inclusive, but the end date is exclusive. For example, if start is 2017-01-01 and end is 2017-05-01, then the cost and usage data is retrieved from 2017-01-01 up to and including 2017-04-30 but not including 2017-05-01.

IV_GRANULARITY TYPE /AWS1/CEXGRANULARITY /AWS1/CEXGRANULARITY

Sets the Amazon Web Services cost granularity to MONTHLY, DAILY, or HOURLY. If Granularity isn't set, the response object doesn't include the Granularity, MONTHLY, DAILY, or HOURLY.

IO_FILTER TYPE REF TO /AWS1/CL_CEXEXPRESSION /AWS1/CL_CEXEXPRESSION

Filters Amazon Web Services costs by different dimensions. For example, you can specify SERVICE and LINKED_ACCOUNT and get the costs that are associated with that account's usage of that service. You can nest Expression objects to define any combination of dimension filters. For more information, see Expression.

The GetCostAndUsageWithResources operation requires that you either group by or filter by a ResourceId. It requires the Expression "SERVICE = Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud - Compute" in the filter.

Valid values for MatchOptions for Dimensions are EQUALS and CASE_SENSITIVE.

Valid values for MatchOptions for CostCategories and Tags are EQUALS, ABSENT, and CASE_SENSITIVE. Default values are EQUALS and CASE_SENSITIVE.

Optional arguments:

IT_METRICS TYPE /AWS1/CL_CEXMETRICNAMES_W=>TT_METRICNAMES TT_METRICNAMES

Which metrics are returned in the query. For more information about blended and unblended rates, see Why does the "blended" annotation appear on some line items in my bill?.

Valid values are AmortizedCost, BlendedCost, NetAmortizedCost, NetUnblendedCost, NormalizedUsageAmount, UnblendedCost, and UsageQuantity.

If you return the UsageQuantity metric, the service aggregates all usage numbers without taking the units into account. For example, if you aggregate usageQuantity across all of Amazon EC2, the results aren't meaningful because Amazon EC2 compute hours and data transfer are measured in different units (for example, hour or GB). To get more meaningful UsageQuantity metrics, filter by UsageType or UsageTypeGroups.

Metrics is required for GetCostAndUsageWithResources requests.

IT_GROUPBY TYPE /AWS1/CL_CEXGROUPDEFINITION=>TT_GROUPDEFINITIONS TT_GROUPDEFINITIONS

You can group Amazon Web Services costs using up to two different groups: DIMENSION, TAG, COST_CATEGORY.

IV_NEXTPAGETOKEN TYPE /AWS1/CEXNEXTPAGETOKEN /AWS1/CEXNEXTPAGETOKEN

The token to retrieve the next set of results. Amazon Web Services provides the token when the response from a previous call has more results than the maximum page size.
