Export Billing to CSV or JSON for processing

Google Cloud Compute Infrastructure
1

Hi Team,

We have an existing solution exporting costs from Azure to a custom dashboard , and customer wants to extend the same for GCP related cost.

I would like to know if there is a direct way to export daily/weekly costs out of GCP and direct it to an external target for further processing.

Currently File Export under Billing is deprecated ( but documentation says it is still active ), and BigQuery export is confusing.

Appreciate any leads in advance.

Cheers,

Jeethu

Hi Jeeth,

Can you let us know which part of the Cloud Billing data export to BigQuery is confusing to you? Also you can use the Data Studio [2] to visualize your spend at GCP by combining Cloud Billing data export to BigQuery functionality with Google Data Studio.
