Retrieves cost and usage metrics for your account. You can specify which cost and usage-related metric, such as BlendedCosts or UsageQuantity , that you want the request to return. You can also filter and group your data by various dimensions, such as SERVICE or AZ , in a specific time range. For a complete list of valid dimensions, see the `` GetDimensionValues `` operation. Master accounts in an organization in AWS Organizations have access to all member accounts.

Sets the start and end dates for retrieving AWS costs. The start date is inclusive, but the end date is exclusive. For example, if start is 2017-01-01 and end is 2017-05-01 , then the cost and usage data is retrieved from 2017-01-01 up to and including 2017-04-30 but not including 2017-05-01 .
The beginning of the time period that you want the usage and costs for. The start date is inclusive. For example, if start is 2017-01-01 , AWS retrieves cost and usage data starting at 2017-01-01 up to the end date.
The end of the time period that you want the usage and costs for. The end date is exclusive. For example, if end is 2017-05-01 , AWS retrieves cost and usage data from the start date up to, but not including, 2017-05-01 .
Filters AWS costs by different dimensions. For example, you can specify SERVICE and LINKED_ACCOUNT and get the costs that are associated with that account's usage of that service. You can nest Expression objects to define any combination of dimension filters. For more information, see Expression .
Return results that match either Dimension object.
Use Expression to filter by cost or by usage. There are two patterns:
Note
Because each Expression can have only one operator, the service returns an error if more than one is specified. The following example shows an Expression object that creates an error.
{ "And": [ ... ], "DimensionValues": { "Dimension": "USAGE_TYPE", "Values": [ "DataTransfer" ] } }
Return results that match both Dimension objects.

{ "And": [ ... ], "DimensionValues": { "Dimension": "USAGE_TYPE", "Values": [ "DataTransfer" ] } }
Return results that don't match a Dimension object.
The specific Dimension to use for Expression .
The names of the metadata types that you can use to filter and group your results. For example, AZ returns a list of Availability Zones.
The metadata values that you can use to filter and group your results. You can use GetDimensionValues to find specific values.
The specific Tag to use for Expression .
The key for a tag.
The specific value of a tag.
Which metrics are returned in the query. For more information about blended and unblended rates, see Why does the "blended" annotation appear on some line items in my bill? .
Valid values are AmortizedCost , BlendedCost , UnblendedCost , and UsageQuantity .
Note
If you return the UsageQuantity metric, the service aggregates all usage numbers without taking into account the units. For example, if you aggregate usageQuantity across all of EC2, the results aren't meaningful because EC2 compute hours and data transfer are measured in different units (for example, hours vs. GB). To get more meaningful UsageQuantity metrics, filter by UsageType or UsageTypeGroups .
Metrics is required for GetCostAndUsage requests.
You can group AWS costs using up to two different groups, either dimensions, tag keys, or both.
When you group by tag key, you get all tag values, including empty strings.
Valid values are AZ , INSTANCE_TYPE , LEGAL_ENTITY_NAME , LINKED_ACCOUNT , OPERATION , PLATFORM , PURCHASE_TYPE , SERVICE , TAGS , TENANCY , and USAGE_TYPE .
Represents a group when you specify a group by criteria, or in the response to a query with a specific grouping.

If you don't provide a SERVICE filter, Cost Explorer defaults to EC2.
Return results that match either Dimension object.
Use Expression to filter by cost or by usage. There are two patterns:
Note
Because each Expression can have only one operator, the service returns an error if more than one is specified. The following example shows an Expression object that creates an error.
{ "And": [ ... ], "DimensionValues": { "Dimension": "USAGE_TYPE", "Values": [ "DataTransfer" ] } }

Gets recommendations for which reservations to purchase. These recommendations could help you reduce your costs. Reservations provide a discounted hourly rate (up to 75%) compared to On-Demand pricing.
AWS generates your recommendations by identifying your On-Demand usage during a specific time period and collecting your usage into categories that are eligible for a reservation. After AWS has these categories, it simulates every combination of reservations in each category of usage to identify the best number of each type of RI to purchase to maximize your estimated savings.
For example, AWS automatically aggregates your EC2 Linux, shared tenancy, and c4 family usage in the US West (Oregon) Region and recommends that you buy size-flexible regional reservations to apply to the c4 family usage. AWS recommends the smallest size instance in an instance family. This makes it easier to purchase a size-flexible RI. AWS also shows the equal number of normalized units so that you can purchase any instance size that you want. For this example, your RI recommendation would be for c4.large , because that is the smallest size instance in the c4 instance family.

Sets the start and end dates for retrieving Reserved Instance (RI) utilization. The start date is inclusive, but the end date is exclusive. For example, if start is 2017-01-01 and end is 2017-05-01 , then the cost and usage data is retrieved from 2017-01-01 up to and including 2017-04-30 but not including 2017-05-01 .
The beginning of the time period that you want the usage and costs for. The start date is inclusive. For example, if start is 2017-01-01 , AWS retrieves cost and usage data starting at 2017-01-01 up to the end date.
The end of the time period that you want the usage and costs for. The end date is exclusive. For example, if end is 2017-05-01 , AWS retrieves cost and usage data from the start date up to, but not including, 2017-05-01 .
Groups only by SUBSCRIPTION_ID . Metadata is included.
Represents a group when you specify a group by criteria, or in the response to a query with a specific grouping.
The string that represents the type of group.
The string that represents a key for a specified group.
Filters utilization data by dimensions. You can filter by the following dimensions:
GetReservationUtilization uses the same `` Expression `` object as the other operations, but only AND is supported among each dimension, and nesting is supported up to only one level deep. If there are multiple values for a dimension, they are OR'd together.
Return results that match either Dimension object.
Use Expression to filter by cost or by usage. There are two patterns:
Note
Because each Expression can have only one operator, the service returns an error if more than one is specified. The following example shows an Expression object that creates an error.
{ "And": [ ... ], "DimensionValues": { "Dimension": "USAGE_TYPE", "Values": [ "DataTransfer" ] } }
Return results that match both Dimension objects.

Return results that don't match a Dimension object.
The specific Dimension to use for Expression .
The names of the metadata types that you can use to filter and group your results. For example, AZ returns a list of Availability Zones.
