The Illumina Usage Explorer allows you to track your usage costs across Illumina cloud products with detailed insights and trends.
To access the Usage Explorer, log in through the domain login URL, and navigate to the product dashboard. From there, select "Usage Explorer" from the list of available applications.
The Usage Explorer can also be accessed by clicking the top left waffle menu and selecting "Usage Explorer".
The summary section gives you a quick look at your iCredit balance, iCredit usage for the current month, quarter, and year, and total storage separated by tier. If you have purchased or used cost units other than iCredits (e.g., GEs, Samples, etc), they will be displayed under additional tabs.
Domain admins can set a budget threshold, and if set it will display in the summary section. To set a budget threshold, switch on the budget notifications toggle and click "Edit budget settings" to specify an iCredit threshold and any email recipients.
The Trend & Details section gives you the ability to filter, group, and explore your usage. The controls on the right side have a variety of options that allow you to examine your data at the granularity you choose. Above the chart, usage and storage metrics are displayed that update with the filter settings.
Below the chart, a table summarizes the data and can be exported as a CSV file. The usage shown depends on several factors including your subscription and admin status. For example, a domain admin has access to all domain usage, including users, workgroups, and ICA projects, while a workgroup or ICA project admin has access to usage within that specific workgroup or project, respectively.
The reports tab allows you to download a CSV-formatted report of your usage costs for a given time period. Use the date choosers to select a range for the report, up to three months at a time.
By default, the reports are generated in the latest usage report format. This newer format is more detailed, but the legacy option is also available to preserve backwards compatibility.
