Attribute API

Attribute API enables one to interact with the data programmatically, extract large amounts of data and integrate it with your internal systems.

The following document will describe the authentication and endpoints available, response codes, and will provide some code examples for easy use of the Attribute API.

Authentication and Authorization

The authentication with the Attribute API is based on JWT (JSON Web Token).

Note

For security reasons, once generated, the token cannot be recovered. Make sure you keep your token in a secure manner.

To generate your token, please access the Attribute Dashboard. Navigate to the setup/api-tokens page, where you will be able to create new tokens and manage your existing tokens.

Click Create Token to open the new-token dialog. Provide a token name, description, expiration in days, and any IP restrictions, then click Create.

API Endpoints

Note

AWS usually takes up to 48 hours to update the data, thus the earliest stable daily data is two days ago.

Granularity and Date Parameters

Most endpoints below accept two path parameters that follow the same conventions:

• granularity: daily to get data for a single day, or monthly to get data for the whole month.
• date: The date for which to fetch the data, in the format YYYY-MM-DD.
  • When granularity is daily, the data corresponds to that specific day. Entering the current day fetches the data available so far; future dates return an empty response.
  • When granularity is monthly, the day part of the date is ignored and the data covers the entire month. Entering the current month fetches the previous month's data; future months return an empty response. Example: if the date is 2026-05-06 and granularity is monthly, the response will include data for April 2026.

Healthcheck Information

Checks the health of the server.

• Endpoint: /api/v1/health
• Method: GET
• Example: https://api.app.attrb.io/api/v1/health
• Returns: HTTP 200 if the server is healthy.

Resources Information

The Resources Information endpoint returns billing data for individual cloud resources (the billing page in Attribute's dashboard).

• Endpoint: /api/v1/resources/{granularity}/{date}
• Method: GET
• Example: https://api.app.attrb.io/api/v1/resources/daily/2025-11-10
• Description: Starts a job to fetch resources data.
• Parameters:
  • granularity and date: See Granularity and date parameters.
• Query Strings:
  • includetags (boolean, optional): If true, includes resource tags in the response. Default false.
• Returns: JobDescription

Note

Dashboard configurations show $0 cost and show tax are both treated as true in the API.

Workloads Information

The Workloads Information endpoint returns billing data aggregated by workload.

• Endpoint: /api/v1/workloads/{granularity}/{date}
• Method: GET
• Example: https://api.app.attrb.io/api/v1/workloads/daily/2025-11-10
• Description: Starts a job to fetch workloads data.
• Parameters:
  • granularity and date: See Granularity and date parameters.
• Query Strings:
  • includelabels (boolean, optional): If true, includes resource labels in the response. Default false.
• Returns: JobDescription

All Customers Information

The All Customers Information endpoint extracts customer insights from the Attribute platform across all cloud providers, such as the customer cost and amortized, effective, and GCP costs for the resources attributed to each customer. (For the detailed structure of the customer data, see AllCustomerEntryObject.)

• Endpoint: /api/v1/allcustomers/{granularity}/{date}
• Method: GET
• Example: https://api.app.attrb.io/api/v1/allcustomers/daily/2026-05-01
• Description: Starts a job to fetch customer data across all cloud providers.
• Parameters:
  • granularity and date: See Granularity and date parameters.
• Returns: JobDescription
• Result object: AllCustomerEntryObject

Identifiers Information

The Identifiers Information endpoint returns compute cost broken down by identifier — a unit such as a customer, project, or country running on a shared cluster. This lets you see how a single cluster's cost splits across business units based on each identifier's share of requests.

Availability: AWS data only, and only for customers who have multiple units configured through sensor identifiers. For other customers, cost is reported through the standard customer cost flow (see All Customers Information).

• Endpoint: /api/v1/identifiers/{granularity}/{date}
• Method: GET
• Example: https://api.app.attrb.io/api/v1/identifiers/daily/2026-06-02
• Description: Starts a job to fetch identifiers cost data.
• Parameters:
  • granularity: daily to get data for a single day (this endpoint supports daily granularity only)
  • date: See date parameters.
• Returns: JobDescription

Cost Calculation Types

Each workload + identifier combination is returned four times, once per cost_calculation_type. The type encodes two independent dimensions:

• Anonymous costs — whether the cost share of requests with no identifier is kept as-is, or redistributed across the identified groups.
• Unallocated costs — whether billing costs that could not be attributed to any workload are excluded or distributed across workloads.

cost_calculation_type	Anonymous costs	Unallocated costs
with_anonymous_without_unallocated	Kept	Excluded
with_anonymous_with_unallocated	Kept	Distributed
without_anonymous_without_unallocated	Redistributed to identified groups	Excluded
without_anonymous_with_unallocated	Redistributed to identified groups	Distributed

AI Cost Information

The AI Cost Information endpoint retrieves AI cost from all clouds and direct providers — Bedrock, Vertex AI, OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, and Anthropic.

• Endpoint: /api/v1/aicost/{granularity}/{date}
• Method: GET
• Example: https://api.app.attrb.io/api/v1/aicost/monthly/2025-11-01
• Description: Starts a job to fetch AI cost data.
• Parameters:
  • granularity and date: See Granularity and date parameters.
• Returns: JobDescription
• Result object:

        }
    ]
}

OpenAI Information

The OpenAI Information endpoint retrieves OpenAI-related insights per Customer and Workload from the Attribute platform.

Results are returned only if you have a native OpenAI integration in AWS configured, including a customer identifier.

• Endpoint: /api/v1/reports/openai/{granularity}/{date}
• Method: GET
• Example: https://api.app.attrb.io/api/v1/reports/openai/monthly/2025-11-01
