env0 will assume an AWS IAM Role in your account, in order to query AWS's billing API.

2. Under type of trusted entity select Another AWS Account
3. Under Account ID enter 913128560467
4. Select **Require external ID**
5. Enter an External ID of your choosing - consider this like a password env0 will use in order to assume the role.
6. Click Next:Permissions
7. Select the policy you created in step 2.

Enable User Defined Cost Allocation Tags

1. Add the Tags called env0_environment_id and env0_project_id to some resource in your AWS account - Make sure that you add those tags to a resource that has some cost to it, for example an EC2 instance.
2. Go to the "Billing" Service (Billing & Cost Management). You'll need to log into to the parent account, if you are using sub-accounts.
3. Under the left side menu, click Cost allocation tags.
4. Under the User-Defined Cost Allocation Tags section, check the checkboxes for the tag-keys env0_environment_id and env0_project_id. Pay attention that those tags might be available in Cost Allocation Tags only after a few days, usually it's 24 hours but we've seen cases where it took a week for them to show up.
5. Click Activate
6. After this step, it can take up to 24 hours to see actual cost values in your environments.
