How do I get a weekly Firebolt query cost and performance report?
WebRun reads your Firebolt compute cost by engine, slowest queries, and engine usage every Monday, exports the numbers into a Google Sheet, and emails the data platform team a summary over Gmail. Data platform teams see cost and performance trends building over weeks instead of pulling a report by hand each time.
- Compute cost growth is visible weekly, not discovered on the bill
- The slowest queries are named every week, not just totals
- A full cost history builds up in Google Sheets automatically

Questions, answered
Does WebRun resize an engine or kill a query?
No. It only reads cost and performance data from Firebolt. Resizing an engine or tuning a query stays a data engineer's decision.
Where can I see the cost trend over time?
In the Google Sheets tracker. Every week adds a row, so compute cost growth is visible without pulling a fresh report.
Does the email go outside the platform team?
No. It only goes to the internal data platform distribution list you set up.
