How can I check my monthly transfer total on a droplet?

Posted on October 2, 2017

Just some background, I am pricing out upgrading my droplet size vs creating a Space. The large majority of my transfer/bandwidth is in images (which I would put on a space), so knowing the droplet’s usage would give me good insight into the cost of a Space.

I understand you don’t offer a total (just the daily/hourly/etc graph) but with Spaces, it would be useful to have a monthly total (or estimate) to get an idea of what the cost would be. Just a tip from a (happy) user of your’s.

Thanks for the feedback. This is on our roadmap but we do not have an ETA. Right now we are not yet charging for bandwidth overages on droplets. This will change in the future but not before this information is made available in the control panel and all users receive adequate notification
