Billable usage and budget alerts added to product sidebars
Key Points
- Billable spend shown in product sidebars
- Create budget alerts inline
- Alerts cover total account-level spend
Summary
Pay-as-you-go Cloudflare customers can now view current-period billable spend and create budget alerts directly from product overview sidebars for: Workers & Pages, D1, R2, Workers KV, Queues, Vectorize, Durable Objects, and Containers. The sidebar shows spend and billing-cycle date range (or current day for Free plans) and launches an inline flow to create a dollar-threshold budget alert.
Key Points
- Widget location: product overview pages for Workers & Pages, D1, R2, Workers KV, Queues, Vectorize, Durable Objects, and Containers.
- Data source: the widget uses the same data as the Billable Usage dashboard and aligns to your billing cycle so displayed spend matches invoices.
- Create budget alert: opens inline from the sidebar so you can set a dollar threshold without leaving the product page.
- Scope: budget alerts apply to total account-level spend across all products (not limited to the product page where created).
- Limitations: Enterprise contract accounts are not yet supported; Free plans show spend aligned to the current day.
