FOCUS column
AllocatedResourceId
The identifier of the resource a provider-allocated charge was attributed to, when the provider split a shared charge across the resources that consumed it. It differs from ResourceId when the charge originated on one shared resource and was allocated to another. Consult the specification for the normative definition.
Example
A shared load balancer’s cost, split by the provider across the services behind it, carries each service’s resource id here.
Where it comes from, per export
The export column that feeds AllocatedResourceId in each format the platform ingests, and the transform applied. A format with no row does not carry the column; the value is then absent rather than guessed.
| Export | Source column | Transform |
|---|---|---|
| AWS Data Exports, FOCUS | AllocatedResourceId | as is |
| Azure Cost Management, FOCUS export | AllocatedResourceId | as is |
| Azure Cost Details (actual cost) | Not carried | — |
| Azure Cost Details (amortized cost) | Not carried | — |
| Google Cloud detailed billing export | Not carried | — |
How Runcost uses it
Runcost attributes provider-allocated rows by the allocated resource so the share lands with the consumer that used it.
