Sources / Datadog

Read current estimates and settled reports separately.

Review Datadog cost with the reporting state visible, so an estimate for the open period is not mistaken for settled billing.

Billing sources

The reporting source

Estimated and settled cost reports.

Guided setup is source- and workspace-dependent. Confirm the reporting scope and access needed during evaluation.

Understand the current period: Current estimates help frame the cost being reported before settlement. Their period and estimated status remain explicit.
Review the settled report: Settled reporting supports the completed billing review. Keep its source-defined scope separate from current estimates rather than adding both views together.
Compare compatible evidence: Review movement within the same reporting basis and inspect supplied product or usage detail. A change in reporting state is part of the explanation, not a hidden adjustment.

Documentation explains reporting scope and the reviewed access requirements. Confirm availability for your workspace before planning a connection.
