Plan and Usage Experience for Partners
Datadog partners see a tailored version of the Plan & Usage page designed for managing multiple customer organizations. This page describes the Plan & Usage experience available to partners viewing the UI from a partner admin organization.
Prerequisites
To access the partner Plan & Usage experience, your organization must be a partner admin organization, which is the top-level organization that Datadog provisions for partners to manage their customer accounts. If your organization was set up through the Datadog Partner Program and you manage customer organizations under it, you are using a partner admin organization. To verify, check that you have multiple contracts with Datadog and can view consolidated cost and usage data across all of them in Plan & Usage.
Note: If you are a customer of a Datadog partner (rather than the partner itself), you have the standard Plan & Usage experience. Depending on your pricing arrangement with your partner, you may see only usage data and no cost data. See Plan & Usage for details.
Partners must have the Datadog Admin role, or a custom role with billing_read and usage_read permissions, to view Plan & Usage data. These are the same permissions required for direct customers.
Overview
Partners accessing Plan & Usage from their partner admin organization see cost and usage data across all of their customer organizations. Only the Usage & Cost tab is available in the partner view; the Plan, Billing History, and Usage Notifications tabs are not displayed.
Cost details
View estimated, historical, and projected cost data for all customer organizations in one place. Partners can see a total across all customers, or group and filter by customer organization, product, and account. See Cost Details for full documentation.
Usage details
View usage data for all customer organizations in one place. Partners can see a total across all customers, or group and filter by customer organization, product, and account. See Usage Details for full documentation.
