If you are a BigQuery user and you visualise your data with Data Studio then you might want to answer the following questions:

• What was the cost of each Data Studio report for yesterday?
• How many times each query/report was run and who ran it?
• What was the cost of queries for tables, datasets (e.g. production/staging/ analytics) with label X?
• Can I be notified in case of a sudden surge in billed bytes amount?

Standard Google Billing dashboard won’t answer these questions.

According to official Google docs at the moment you can’t use labels for BigQuery jobs.
