I just signed up for google cloud and I would like to track my costs in real time or at least by the hour.
From the documentation costs are incurred in 10-minute bundles but I cannot view costs incurred in my Billings area.
You can try "Cost table" from Google Console > Billing > Cost table. There you should configure your own filters, for example filter by project name, compute engine, sku description: instance. There it will show you all of your instances with usage, cost and more information.
For self-serve Cloud Billing accounts, your Google Cloud costs are charged automatically in one of two ways: Monthly billing: Costs are charged on a regular monthly cycle. Threshold billing: Costs are charged when your account has accrued a specific amount.
Just spent way to much time with support to find this:
There is also a breakdown of charges so far in the each month under Transactions tab that is less useful.
