To implement an App Search Filter in the CUDOS (Cloud Intelligence Dashboards on AWS)

Hi You can use https://catalog.workshops.aws/awscid/en-US/dashboards/add-organizational-taxonomy to add filters and group by for your applications.

Then you can add Row Level Security on top of that https://catalog.workshops.aws/awscid/en-US/customizations/row-level-security Best, Iakov

To implement an App Search Filter in your Cloud Intelligence Dashboards (CUDOS) to view costs specific to applications, you'll need to leverage cost allocation tags. Here's how to proceed:

1. First, ensure you have the appropriate cost allocation tags applied to your AWS resources that identify different applications. These tags need to be activated in the AWS Cost Explorer.

2. Modify your existing CUDOS dashboard to include these tags by updating the Athena queries that power your dashboard:

• Locate the summary_view query in Athena
• Add your application tags after the line containing "line_item_usage_account_id" "linked_account_id"
• Filter on "resource_tags_" in your CUR table to find the appropriate application tags

3. After modifying the queries, you'll need to update the dataset in Amazon QuickSight to incorporate these new tags.

4. Once your dashboard is updated with the application tags, you can publish your customized analysis as a dashboard to share with other users, allowing them to filter by the application tags you've added.

This approach will allow platform engineers like Joe to filter the cost data specifically for their applications, providing them with the targeted cost visibility they need. The filters will work across all the existing dashboard tabs like Executive Summary and RI/SP recommendations.
