Databricks billing data arrives a few hours late, so any "last 24
hours" figure is missing its most recent hours. FinOpsWay is a free
browser extension that shows the cost of the page you are on in the
workspace navigation. It tells you when its data ends and marks the
unreported hours clearly instead of showing them as zero.

A small cost chip in the workspace navigation. Click it for the full
breakdown.

The chip in the navigation
$3.13 for the workspace over the 24 hours to 18:00, and how old that
figure is. A cost number is only useful if you know when it is from.
Click for the breakdown
The same scope over 24 hours, 7 days and 14 days. The heading says
what you are looking at: the workspace, by SKU.
Hatched bars are unreported hours
Billing data ends at 18:00, so the hours after that are drawn hatched
instead of being shown as zero.
Every SKU, with a comparison
Each line is compared with the same period before it, so you can see
whether cost is going up or down.
The last line of the panel explains the gap: the window ends at
18:00, billing has not reported the 4 h since. The screenshot is
from a real workspace, not a mockup.
What it does
Cost for the page you are on
On a cluster, SQL warehouse, job, job run, pipeline or pipeline
update page the chip shows the cost of that resource next to the
cost of the whole workspace. On the home page, and on any page it
does not recognise, it shows the workspace total.
Runs entirely in your browser
It runs read-only SQL queries against the system.billing
and system.compute tables directly from the browser.
There is no backend, no OAuth flow and nothing to deploy. It
authenticates with a personal access token you paste into the
options page, or with the browser session you are already signed
in with.
Free
There are no servers to pay for, so there is nothing to charge
for. No account, no trial, no paid tier and no telemetry.
Where it runs
Clouds
Databricks on AWS (*.cloud.databricks.com) and Azure
(*.azuredatabricks.net). The extension works the same
way on both.
Browsers
Chrome, Edge and Firefox, as a Manifest V3 extension. Available in the
Chrome Web Store (Chrome and Edge) and on Firefox Add-ons.
Credential
A workspace personal access token, pasted into the extension's
options page. It is only ever sent to that workspace.
Get it
FinOpsWay is available in the Chrome Web Store and on Firefox Add-ons.
It is free and does not need an account.
Edge users install from the Chrome Web Store. After installing, open the
extension's options page, choose your workspace and paste a personal
access token (or use your existing browser session). Then open any
Databricks page and the cost chip will appear in the top navigation.

Your data
The extension has no backend and no telemetry. The only network
requests it makes are the queries themselves, sent to the Databricks
workspace you are signed in to. We run no server, receive no data and
cannot see what you query.
The data the extension reads is used only to display your Databricks
spend. None of it is sold, shared with third parties or used for
advertising. Cloud machine prices are bundled with the extension, so
estimating cluster cost does not contact any cloud provider either.
