3) can I run this API for past months? if not, then what is a way to get same details for earlier period.

Answer 1

Hello @Prasad, Rakesh - Thank you for contacting us!

I know that you are looking for balance summary for previous months. Currently, this is a limitation for Balance Summary in Power BI.

Below is PG advise:

The call by Billing Account Balances - Get By Billing Account - REST API (Azure Consumption) | Microsoft Learn gives current month data only.

To get data for other billing periods, please use this API Balances - Get For Billing Period By Billing Account - REST API (Azure Consumption) | Microsoft Learn

Hope this helps!

@SadiqhAhmed-MSFT can you please help me to get the Consumption usage details of previous month.

I used this API to fetch the usage details of scope but it only return the record of the current month.

https://management.azure.com/{scope}/providers/Microsoft.Consumption/usageDetails?api-version=2021-10-01

Then, I used this api to fetch the balances:
https://management.azure.com/providers/Microsoft.Billing/billingAccounts/{id}/providers/Microsoft.Consumption/balances?api-version=2021-10-01

But, get this response:
{"error":{"code":"404","message":"No billing period information found for the specified Enrollments}

Can, you please help me to fetch the usage details for previous months.
