How to find out licence consumption by sourcetype?

I find myself using Splunk Cloud and I see that the licensing is being exceeded on daily.

In the Cloud Monitoring Console APP there is no option that allows me to see what the sourcetype is and this would help me to know exactly which source has increased usage.

Hi I'm afraid that it isn't possible because the searches used on-premise aren't applicable to Cloud.

If you have the same retention on all your data, the only way to better understand which data source gives more data is the "Storage Summary" dashboard in License usage in Cloud Monitoring App.

Ciao.
