Changelog

This release contains the new Self-Service IPU/IPC visibility feature. 

  • This feature's main frontend component is the new custom component IPU/IPC Report, which displays a page with an IPU/IPC report chart that displays data filtered by three parameters:  report type, time period, and granularity.
  • On the backend side, the feature uses the new GraphQL API to retrieve the aggregated usage for the current account of a given period with a given step (granularity). Also, newly created
    `ACCOUNTUSAGE_VIEW`
      permission is required to see data on the Reports page.
  • The bpp_records_processed_total metric is extended with 2 new labels. The
    `first_batch_received`
    label is used to indicate the date of the first batch. The
    `deduplication_finished`
    label is used to indicate the end date of the Inventory Deduplication job execution.
