    REST Resource: billingAccounts.budgets

    Resource: Budget

    A budget is a plan that describes what you expect to spend on Cloud projects, plus the rules to execute as spend is tracked against that plan, (for example, send an alert when 90% of the target spend is met). The budget time period is configurable, with options such as month (default), quarter, year, or custom time period.

    Fields
    projects[]

    string

    Optional. A set of projects of the form projects/{project} , specifying that usage from only this set of projects should be included in the budget. If omitted, the report will include all usage for the billing account, regardless of which project the usage occurred on.

    Currently, multiple entries or multiple values per entry are not allowed.

    Union field usage_period . Multiple options to choose the budget's time period, specifying that only usage that occurs during this time period should be included in the budget. If not set, the usage_period defaults to CalendarPeriod.MONTH. usage_period can be only one of the following:
    calendarPeriod

    enum ( CalendarPeriod )

    Optional. Specifies to track usage for recurring calendar period. For example, assume that CalendarPeriod.QUARTER is set. The budget will track usage from April 1 to June 30, when the current calendar month is April, May, June. After that, it will track usage from July 1 to September 30 when the current calendar month is July, August, September, so on.

    customPeriod

    object ( CustomPeriod )

    Optional. Specifies to track usage from any start date (required) to any end date (optional). This time period is static, it does not recur.

    Enums
    CREDIT_TYPES_TREATMENT_UNSPECIFIED
    INCLUDE_ALL_CREDITS All types of credit are subtracted from the gross cost to determine the spend for threshold calculations.
    EXCLUDE_ALL_CREDITS All types of credit are added to the net cost to determine the spend for threshold calculations.
    INCLUDE_SPECIFIED_CREDITS Credit types specified in the creditTypes field are subtracted from the gross cost to determine the spend for threshold calculations.

    CalendarPeriod

    A CalendarPeriod represents the abstract concept of a time period that has a canonical start. Grammatically, "the start of the current CalendarPeriod ". All calendar times begin at 12 AM US and Canadian Pacific Time (UTC-8).

    Enums
    CALENDAR_PERIOD_UNSPECIFIED Calendar period is unset. This is the default if the budget is for a custom time period (CustomPeriod).
    MONTH A month. Month starts on the first day of each month, such as January 1, February 1, March 1, and so on.
    QUARTER A quarter. Quarters start on dates January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1 of each year.
    YEAR A year. Year starts on January 1.

    CustomPeriod

    All date times begin at 12 AM US and Canadian Pacific Time (UTC-8).

    BudgetAmount

    The budgeted amount for each usage period.

    JSON representation

 // Union field budget_amount 
can be only one of the following: 
 "specifiedAmount" 
 : 
 {

 : 
 { 
 object (  LastPeriodAmount 
 
) 
 } 
 // End of list of possible types for union field budget_amount 
. 
 }
    Fields
    Union field budget_amount . Specification for what amount to use as the budget. budget_amount can be only one of the following:
    specifiedAmount

    object ( Money )

    A specified amount to use as the budget. currencyCode is optional. If specified when creating a budget, it must match the currency of the billing account. If specified when updating a budget, it must match the currencyCode of the existing budget. The currencyCode is provided on output.

    lastPeriodAmount

    object ( LastPeriodAmount )

    Use the last period's actual spend as the budget for the present period. LastPeriodAmount can only be set when the budget's time period is a Filter.calendar_period . It cannot be set in combination with Filter.custom_period .

    LastPeriodAmount

    This type has no fields.

    Describes a budget amount targeted to the last Filter.calendar_period spend. At this time, the amount is automatically 100% of the last calendar period's spend; that is, there are no other options yet. Future configuration options will be described here (for example, configuring a percentage of last period's spend). LastPeriodAmount cannot be set for a budget configured with a Filter.custom_period .

    ThresholdRule

    ThresholdRule contains the definition of a threshold. Threshold rules define the triggering events used to generate a budget notification email. When a threshold is crossed (spend exceeds the specified percentages of the budget), budget alert emails are sent to the email recipients you specify in the NotificationsRule .

    Threshold rules also affect the fields included in the JSON data object sent to a Pub/Sub topic.

    Threshold rules are required if using email notifications.

    Threshold rules are optional if only setting a pubsubTopic NotificationsRule , unless you want your JSON data object to include data about the thresholds you set.

    For more information, see set budget threshold rules and actions .

    enum ( Basis )

    Optional. The type of basis used to determine if spend has passed the threshold. Behavior defaults to CURRENT_SPEND if not set.

    CURRENT_SPEND Use current spend as the basis for comparison against the threshold.
    FORECASTED_SPEND Use forecasted spend for the period as the basis for comparison against the threshold. FORECASTED_SPEND can only be set when the budget's time period is a Filter.calendar_period . It cannot be set in combination with Filter.custom_period .

See https://cloud.google.com/billing/docs/how-to/budgets-notification-recipients for more details.
    disableDefaultIamRecipients
