CloudCheckr will attempt to detect the billing region that Microsoft writes your Azure cost to. If it cannot, select a billing region code.
Effective January 21, 2025, Microsoft will be deprecating an API that we use to pull Azure Plan/NCE cost data. CloudCheckr has updated its CPV (control panel vendor) applications to use the new Microsoft Graph API. Our CPV application includes the PartnerBilling.ReadAll permission, which will allow CloudCheckr to continue receiving cost data. This permission requires an organizational administrator to approve. The steps below will allow an organizational administrator to grant consent to our CPV application to use this permission.
You may need to work with your Organizations Administrator(s) to grant admin consent.
This change only applies to Azure Plan/NCE CSPs using Azure Commercial regions. Azure Government CSPs are not impacted.
Follow these Steps
Navigate to Entra ID > Enterprise Applications.
Search for, and click on CloudCheckr's CPV application. Use the table below for a list of CloudCheckr's CPV Application GUIDs:
