Troubleshoot your Google Cloud integration

Use the following procedure to trouble-shoot your Google Cloud integration.

Procedure

If your data is displaying incorrectly in cost management, first download your CSV files and validate the data that you sent. If that does not solve the issue, review the following common scenarios:
  • If you upload data for the same day multiple times, the most recent upload is what is displayed. Send the data again in the correct order.
  • Google Cloud uses a method called crossover data. For each day, Google Cloud continues to add billing data 72 hours after it had accrued. To ensure that you are capturing the correct billing data, consider a rolling window to capture these additions. For example, you can maintain a five day rolling window, or never query current day data and instead always query n-5.
  • At the start of a new month, Google Cloud finishes billing for the previous month. To ensure that there are no gaps in your billing data, send the data for the previous month up to three days into the following month.
  • If your custom table does not have partitions by day (_PARTITIONTIME), use usage_start_time as the partition date.
