Creating Your CSV

1

Start with required fields

Begin with usage_date and cost columns.
2

Add optional fields

Add any other columns that improve your categorization and filtering.
3

Format values

Dates must use the YYYY-MM-DD format (e.g., 2025-05-01).
Costs must be numeric—don’t include currency symbols.
4

Save the file

Save the file as a .csv.

Data Validation

Pelanor verifies that:
  • The file is valid CSV
  • usage_date and cost are present
  • Values follow expected formats
  • consumption_type values (if included) are valid
If any issues are found, Pelanor returns a clear error so you can fix the file.

After Integration

  • Analyse these costs alongside your cloud providers
  • Filter / group by any column you uploaded
  • Build dashboards including custom-vendor spend
  • Create alerts for unusual spending patterns
