We're still working on this feature, but we'd love for you to try it out!
This feature is currently provided as part of a preview program pursuant to our pre-release policies.
The Google Cloud Platform (GCP) integration for Cloud Cost Intelligence enables you to monitor and analyze your GCP cloud spending directly within New Relic. This integration uses a service account-based authorization method to securely access your GCP billing and pricing data.
When you set up this integration, New Relic creates a dedicated service account in its GCP environment on your behalf. You grant this service account read-only access to your BigQuery datasets, allowing New Relic to retrieve and analyze your cost data without requiring broader access to your GCP resources.
Key features
- Automated service account generation per New Relic account
- Secure, read-only access to billing data via BigQuery
- Access to both billing export and cloud pricing export tables
- Connection validation and error reporting
Prerequisites
Before setting up the GCP integration, ensure you have:
- Connection to New Relic infrastructure monitoring - A GCP project already connected. See Connect Google Cloud Platform services to New Relic
- Enabled billing on an active GCP account.
- Configured a BigQuery dataset with these tables:
- Billing Export table (contains your GCP billing data)
- Cloud Pricing Export table (contains GCP pricing information)
- Verified access to Google Cloud Console.
