How can I aggregate the cost of using Azure OpenAI Service per user authenticated with AzureAD, per API Key, or per principal key?

Question

For internal budgeting and efficiency purposes, I would like to break out the cost of Azure OpenAI Service in detail; it would be ideal if I could get the cost from the API Endpoint authentication method. So far I have not been able to find a way to do this from the Cost Analysis page.

Is there any way to accomplish this? We are also considering changing the implementation architecture itself.

Hello friend,

Have you considered organizing by Tags? You can use tags to group your billing data. If you're running multiple VMs for different organizations, for example, use tags to group usage by cost center. You can also use tags to categorize costs by runtime environment, such as billing usage for VMs running in the production environment.

Hope this helps ;)
