Subject: Amazon Q Developer Pro - Unable to Access Usage Dashboard or Monitor Subscription Consumption Issue Category: Billing & Account Management / Service Usage Severity: High (Business Impact - Unable to monitor paid service usage) Problem Description I have an active Amazon Q Developer Pro subscription ($19/month per user) but am experiencing a complete lack of visibility into my usage metrics and consumption data. Despite paying for the Pro tier, I cannot access the usage dashboard or any reporting mechanisms to monitor my subscription usage against the documented limits.

Current Situation Subscription Status:

Active Amazon Q Developer Pro subscription confirmed Console shows both "Amazon Q" and "Kiro" branding (appears to be related to recent rebranding) Receiving error messages indicating monthly limits have been reached Unable to determine what specific features or actions are consuming my Pro tier allowances Missing Functionality:

No Usage Dashboard Access - Cannot locate or access the Amazon Q Developer usage dashboard mentioned in documentation No Usage Metrics - Zero visibility into current consumption against Pro tier limits No Reporting - Cannot generate or view any usage reports No Quota Visibility - Unable to see current usage against documented Pro limits: 10,000 inference calls per month (agentic requests) 30 instances per month (Amazon Q Developer Agent) 4,000 lines of code per month (code transformation) 1,000 queries per month (Generative SQL) Steps Already Taken Console Investigation:

Thoroughly checked Amazon Q Developer console settings page Searched for "Dashboard" option in navigation (not visible) Verified subscription status shows as active Checked for "Amazon Q Developer usage dashboard" toggle in settings Technical Troubleshooting:

Created and executed CloudShell scripts to query usage APIs Attempted to access metrics via AWS CLI commands Checked CloudWatch for Amazon Q/CodeWhisperer metrics Verified IAM permissions for dashboard access Documentation Review:

Confirmed Pro tier should include usage dashboard per AWS documentation Verified expected dashboard functionality and metrics Reviewed troubleshooting guides for dashboard access issues Business Impact This issue is preventing effective management of our paid Amazon Q Developer Pro subscription:

Cost Management: Cannot monitor usage to optimize spending Resource Planning: Unable to predict when limits will be reached Team Management: Cannot track team productivity metrics Service Optimization: Cannot identify which features provide the most value Expected Resolution Please provide assistance with:

Immediate Access: Enable access to the Amazon Q Developer usage dashboard Current Usage Data: Provide current consumption data for this billing period Limit Identification: Clarify which specific limit has been reached and when it resets Monitoring Setup: Ensure proper dashboard and reporting functionality going forward Documentation: Clarify any differences between "Amazon Q" and "Kiro" interfaces Additional Context This appears to be related to the recent Amazon Q Developer CLI rebranding to "Kiro" mentioned in AWS documentation. The console shows both brandings, which may indicate a transition period affecting dashboard functionality.

As a paying Pro subscriber, I require immediate visibility into my usage patterns to effectively manage this service and justify the continued investment in Amazon Q Developer for our development workflow.

Requested Follow-up Please provide:

Direct access to usage dashboard or alternative method to view consumption data Explanation of current usage against Pro tier limits Timeline for when dashboard functionality will be fully available Best practices for monitoring Amazon Q Developer Pro usage going forward Priority: This issue requires urgent attention as it affects our ability to manage a paid service subscription and could impact our development productivity planning.

I understand your frustration with the lack of visibility into your Amazon Q Developer Pro subscription usage. Let me address your concerns based on the current state of the service.

Regarding the Kiro rebranding you're seeing: Kiro is indeed the new name for Amazon Q Developer CLI. This is a rebranding effort, and the Kiro console maintains all the same functionality as the Amazon Q Developer console. If you're managing Amazon Q Developer Pro subscriptions, you should use the Kiro console for subscription management. However, the Users & Groups page under Kiro is specifically for managing Kiro subscriptions, not Amazon Q Developer subscriptions.

For Amazon Q Developer Pro tier upgrades with Builder IDs: When users reach free tier limits, they're prompted to subscribe to the Pro tier by connecting their AWS account and Builder ID through the Amazon Q Developer console. The Pro tier provides higher usage limits without requiring additional configuration or management.

Unfortunately, based on the available information, there isn't specific documentation about a dedicated usage dashboard within the Amazon Q Developer console that displays real-time consumption against your Pro tier limits (the 10,000 inference calls, 30 instances, 4,000 lines of code, and 1,000 queries you mentioned).

For monitoring AWS service usage and costs more broadly, you might consider:

AWS Cost Explorer: This service provides cost and usage analysis, though it focuses on billing data rather than feature-specific usage metrics. It offers hourly granularity for cost and usage data across AWS services.

Amazon CloudWatch: While primarily for monitoring AWS resources and applications, CloudWatch provides metrics and logging capabilities. However, there's no specific mention of native Amazon Q Developer usage metrics being available through CloudWatch.

I recommend contacting AWS Support directly with your account details so they can:

  • Verify your specific subscription configuration
  • Clarify which limit has been reached
  • Provide your current usage data
  • Explain the expected dashboard functionality for Pro tier subscribers
  • Address any issues related to the Kiro rebranding transition

As a paying Pro subscriber, you should have access to appropriate usage visibility, and AWS Support can provide account-specific assistance that goes beyond general documentation.
