Starting the dashboard
You can use the Procurement insights dashboard in the AWS Marketplace console, or you can call it programmatically. When you use the dashboard in the console, it provides two tabs, Cost analysis and Agreements. The following steps explain how to open the dashboard in the console.
To start the dashboard
Open the AWS Marketplace console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/marketplace

In the navigation pane, choose Procurement insights.

Do either of the following:
Use the charts and graphs on the Cost analysis tab for information about the amounts spent on products and sellers.
-
Use the charts and graphs on the Agreements tab to gain an overall view of the AWS Marketplace agreements across all the AWS accounts in your organization.
Important
The tab's Expired agreements section only shows data for agreements that expired after the dashboard became available for use.

Tips for using the dashboard
The following tips can help you use the Procurement insights dashboard.
-
The dashboard uses Amazon QuickSight to present your data. The system automatically chooses the charts and other display elements that most logically fit your data. For more information about using Amazon QuickSight dashboards, see Interacting with Amazon QuickSight dashboards, in the Amazon QuickSight User Guide.
-
You can download your data. Scroll down to the Source data table in either tab. Point to the upper-right corner of the table, then choose the vertical ellipsis to export your data. You can export to a CSV file, or to Microsoft Excel.
-
Both tabs use the same data filters. The filters on a given tab only apply to that tab, but they apply to all the charts and graphs on the tab. The following table lists the filters and their default values.
Filter
Default value
Agreement end date
The past 12 months relative to today
Note
On the Agreements tab, the data in the Expired agreements section only shows values that date back to the dashboard's release date, not a full 12 months of data.

To change the default filter values, select the arrow on the right side of the Controls bar.
