Billing Considerations for Tableau Next

Usage is calculated based on the number of rows of structured data ingested from Salesforce via the Salesforce CRM connector, Marketing Cloud connector, Commerce Cloud connector, and Marketing Cloud Personalization connector.

As of August 7, 2025, usage of this type is included with Data 360 and doesn't consumes credits. For details, see Ingest Salesforce Data into Data 360 for Free

Usage is calculated based on the number of rows of streaming data processed by Data 360 across all data streams with stream processing, with the exception of structured data ingested via the Internal Data Pipeline.

Data streams that report usage with this usage type include streams created by the Website and Mobile App connector and streaming ingestion API.

Usage is calculated based on the higher of the number of rows read or number of rows written.

For incremental batch data transforms, after the first time a transform runs, usage is based on the number of rows that have changed since the previous run.

For data federation, usage is calculated based on the number of records retrieved from the source. For a data share, usage is calculated based on the number of rows returned to fulfill an external data lake’s request.

For data sharing between Data 360 orgs, this usage type applies to the target org for all queries.

For external data shares, this usage type applies only to cross-cloud and cross-region queries. There’s no credit consumption if the query originates from the same region and the same cloud.

Usage is calculated based on the number of records processed.

The count of records processed depends on the structure of a query as well as other related factors such as the total number of records in the objects being queried.

Usage is determined by the number of standard actions called by the agent in a text conversation. Currently, every standard action called by the agent is metered as one standard action, irrespective of the number of tokens processed.

Standard agent actions are actions that are available out-of-the-box. To check the list of Standard actions, see Standard Action Reference.

Note Use of some standard agent actions require that a subscription has been purchased for each user that accesses these actions, such as a subscription to Agentforce for Sales Add-on or Agentforce for Service Add-on. To determine which subscription is required for such standard actions, see Standard Action Reference at Standard Action Reference. While this requirement is not technically enforced yet, users who don’t have the required add-on license will lose access to such actions for which they don’t have a license when the requirement is enforced.

Usage is calculated based on the data object type.

For streaming data ingestion, usage is calculated based on the number of rows of streaming data processed by Data 360 across all data streams with stream processing, with the exception of structured data that is ingested via the Internal Data Pipeline.

Data streams that report usage with this usage type are streams created by Website and Mobile App Connector and streaming ingestion API.

For streaming data transforms and streaming calculated insights, usage is calculated based on the number of records processed.

For streaming data actions, usage is calculated based on the number of records processed in the DMO. Records processed are based on the number of new records created or updated in the DMO per activation.

If a data graph is being used with the activation, the number of records processed will be doubled in the final calculation. For example, when a data graph is being used with the activation, if there is 1 new record change in the DMO, this will count as 2 records processed.

Usage is calculated based on the data object type.

For local data lake objects and data model objects, the number of rows used for billing calculations is limited to the number of rows in the object.

For external data lake objects, the actual count of rows read or written is used. This number can exceed the number of rows in the object if an object’s rows are read multiple times in a single transform run.

For incremental batch transforms, after the first time a transform runs, usage is calculated based on the number of rows that changed since the previous run.

For batch calculated insights, usage is calculated based on the number of records in all underlying objects used in creating the Calculated Insight each time it runs.

Data transforms aren’t metered.

Other usage that falls into this category is metered.

Usage is calculated based on the number of records processed.

The count of records processed depends on the structure of a query as well as other related factors such as the total number of records in the objects being queried.

When an object is queried in the context of a data space, the number of rows processed is based on the total number of processed rows in the source object, not the number of rows pertaining to the particular data space

Usage is determined by the number of standard actions called by the agent in a text conversation. Currently, every standard action called by the agent is metered as one standard action, irrespective of the number of tokens processed.
