Usage dashboard
The usage dashboard is available to all Data Productivity Cloud customers. From here you can view a complete breakdown of the credits consumed by your account across the duration of your subscription, per day and per month.
Note
- From 21st August 2023, Data Productivity Cloud users with the Billing Administrator role will be able to view the userID of each Matillion ETL user who triggers an additional user charge during a billing period.
