Hello ArcGIS Community,
I am currently trying to create a weekly report on credit usage and storage consumption across different projects in ArcGIS Online. I have several folders (projects) in my account, each containing multiple items that occupy storage and thus consume credits. However, the credit consumption data per item is only available in a table format (in MB), without any direct indication of the folder (project) to which the items belong.
My goal is to:
Additionally, I would like to know how to convert the file size (MB) into credit usage. The credit usage is not directly mentioned for each file in the table, and I am unsure how to calculate the cost of credits based on the size of my items. Any guidance on how to convert this file size into a credit cost or any tools that can help me calculate this would be greatly appreciated.
Here are my questions:
I would appreciate any advice, tips, or solutions that could help me automate this process and get a clear view of my credit consumption and storage usage.
Thank you in advance!
One way to track storage credit consumption per project could be to categorize each object according to its project. Categories are included in the Item Report. You can read more about categories here: Content categories—ArcGIS Online Help | Documentation.
Views are not linked to credit consumption. If you would like to link views to projects I think you would have to combine the Item view count report with the Item Report (and use categories). There might also be other ways.
The built in tool are these CSV reports that you can create (ArcGIS Online Reports | Tools for Administering Your Organization). If you want to make something more fancier you can, for example, use python to collect usage data and store it in feature services and then build Dashboards on top of those.
