You have to prove that you have billing metrics in the Cloudwatch in AWS CloudWatch console.

billing metrics not in cloudwatch console. @jangaraj can tell me how to create billing metric so i get daily cost, monthly cost

You don’t have billing metric, so Grafana doesn’t show that metric. It’s correct behaviour and it’s not a Grafana issue.

It is your AWS config issue, so contact your AWS support. This forum is for Grafana, not AWS. I guess you need to enable billing alerts - AWS option Billing > Billing Preferences > Receive Billing Alerts

@linuxnoob did you get around this issue? I am having a problem getting the AWS/Billing data in grafana yet I can see all other data from EC2, EBS, and the like. My account surely has billing data but I cannot see it in grafana. I am using CloudWatch as my data source.

@robertmyles38 you checking billing data inside cloudwatch metrics? or in cost explorer just asking…

I think I’m checking the billing data inside the CloudWatch metrics because I have set this as the data. source in Grafana. Is there something I am doing wrong here? @linuxnoob
