An Expression object used to categorize costs. This supports dimensions, tags, and nested expressions. Currently the only dimensions supported are LINKED_ACCOUNT
, SERVICE_CODE
, RECORD_TYPE
, LINKED_ACCOUNT_NAME
, REGION
, and USAGE_TYPE
.
You can define the CostCategoryRule
rule type as either REGULAR
or INHERITED_VALUE
. The INHERITED_VALUE
rule type adds the flexibility to define a rule that dynamically inherits the cost category value. This value is from the dimension value that's defined by CostCategoryInheritedValueDimension
. For example, suppose that you want to costs to be dynamically grouped based on the value of a specific tag key. First, choose an inherited value rule type, and then choose the tag dimension and specify the tag key to use.
