Hi @WOOTEST-34,

Welcome to Google Cloud Community!

Unfortunately, the current functionality of Google Cloud Platform (GCP) does not allow you to extract the cost of a resource before applying labels. When you apply labels to a resource, the original cost data is overwritten and becomes unavailable.

• Extracting the cost of a GCP resource before applying labels is not possible with current functionality.
• Workarounds include:
  • Exporting historical billing data before applying labels.
  • Estimating cost based on usage metrics and pricing information.
  • Submitting a feature request to Google Cloud.
• Ideally, Google Cloud would offer a native way to access the cost of resources before applying labels.
