I’ve been trying to get a sense of the usage my apps have in Fly, but every time I go the Billing page, I see a cut off description of the line item (like: “1428592 second × VM: Dedicated CPU (at $0”) and the “i” button, with hint “See usage” takes me to “allocation” page where it shows “No data available” (see screenshot below).
The URL is this one: https://fly.io/dashboard/<mine or your username>/usage/allocation?end_date=2023-07-31&start_date=2023-07-01
So, today, I continue to click around to get a sense to compare this month’s usage with last months usage and changed the start & end date above to June.
What did I get? No data available…
So, I noticed the invoice list, so I clicked around…
And in the invoice I’ve found an URL that shows the usage in that invoice…
My first thought: it will show me “No data available”… but it did not!
It showed me a really awesome usage dashboard (see screenshot below)!
It breaks down per app, builder, etc… Just what I was looking for!
By now, if you still here with me, you should know that we are about to get back to “digest” vs “allocation”!
I had to go all the way to Stripe to find the desired URL, while Fly dashboard only pointed me to an URL with “No data available” :-D.
So, I’ve noticed the only different between the two URLs are “digest” vs “allocations”.
Here are the 2 URLs side by side:
https://fly.io/dashboard/<mine or your username>/usage/allocation?end_date=2023-07-31&start_date=2023-07-01
https://fly.io/dashboard/<mine or your username>/usage/digest?end_date=2023-07-31&start_date=2023-07-01
So, I am adding this to my wishlist’s:
Hi there Fly Team!
Can you replace the "i" button, in the billing page, at least temporarily, to go to the "digest" version instead of the "allocation"?
I know, from the Experimental notice, that this is a new feature you are building, but there is already a better URL than the "allocation"! :-D
And that is being used in the Stripe invoice! :-D
Warm regards!
