Query your metrics in Explore to confirm the team label is present before you configure cost attribution.

Estimated time: 1 min

Confirm the team label appears on your metrics

Cost attribution uses labels that already exist on your telemetry. In this milestone, you query your metrics in Explore to confirm that the team label is present before you configure attribution.

To query metrics by team, complete the following steps:

  1. Go to Explore.

  2. Make sure the Prometheus data source for your stack is selected. Its name follows the pattern grafanacloud-STACK_SLUG-prom.

  3. Switch to Code mode to write queries directly.

  4. Enter a query that counts the collectors that report metrics for each team value.

  5. Click Run query to see the results.

The results show one series for each team, for example {team="payments-platform"}. The value is the number of collectors that send metrics for that team.

If no series appear, wait a few minutes for the collectors to poll Fleet Management and apply the pipeline. If you still see no team label, check that:

  • The pipeline is active and matches your collectors.
  • The collectors have a team attribute.
  • The GCLOUD_RW_API_KEY environment variable is set on the collectors.

In the next milestone, you configure team as a cost attribution label.
