AWS Cost and Usage reports track the monthly AWS costs and usage associated with your AWS account. The report contains line items for each unique combination of AWS product, usage type, and operation that your AWS account uses. You can configure the AWS Cost and Usage report to show only the data that you want, using the AWS Cost and Usage API. Service Endpoint The AWS Cost and Usage Report API provides the following endpoint: cur.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\n\n### \ud83d\udd27 How it Works\n\nThis workflow converts the AWS Cost and Usage Report Service API into an MCP-compatible interface for AI agents.\n\n\u2022 **MCP Trigger**: Serves as your server endpoint for AI agent requests\n\u2022 **HTTP Request Nodes**: Handle API calls to http://cur.{region}.amazonaws.com\n\u2022 **AI Expressions**: Automatically populate parameters via `$fromAI()` placeholders\n\u2022 **Native Integration**: Returns responses directly to the AI agent\n"
