Outside of GitHub Enterprise Cloud, the enhanced billing platform is available only to organization accounts created after November 13, 2024 on a GitHub Team plan. It is currently not available to:

  • GitHub Free
  • GitHub Pro
  • Organizations that upgrade from GitHub Free to GitHub Team

In this article

The new billing platform provides you with the tools to:

  • Get insights into the usage of your organization members to understand how your resources are being used.
  • Generate reports on the usage of your organization members to import into your own tools for visualization and analysis.

Viewing usage

You can view the usage of your organization members and download the usage data for further analysis.

  1. In the upper-right corner of GitHub, select your profile photo, then click Your organizations.

  2. Next to the organization, click Settings.

  3. On the left side of the page, in the organization sidebar, click Billing & Licensing.

  4. Click Usage.

  5. To search or filter the graph, click the search bar. Then click the filter you want to use.

  6. To further filter the graph, use the dropdown menus.

    • To see the usage by group, select Group, then click a group.
    • To filter by time, select Time Frame, then click a time period.
    • Optionally, to view the monthly budget and actual usage per day, select Group: None and Time Frame: Current Month.

    Below the graph, you can see a more granular overview of the usage. Click the arrow next to a specific date to see a nested table with usage per SKU, units, price/unit, and actual usage.

    Note

    The usage graph is configured to represent the start of the month to the end of the month, not your specific billing period.
