Monitor LM Logs Monthly Usage | Feature Requests

We had an issue recently where we were ingesting excessive logs into our portal, and we exceeded our monthly quota for LM Logs. I would like to request a way for us to monitor and alert on our LM Logs utilization relative to our contract.There are 2 community logicmodules which are meant to accomplish this, but I think that LM should support this out of the box. The community modules have problems and need to be modified in order to work. I will list them at the end for anyone interested.Below are the updates LM would need to make to accomplish this:Add new Core logicmodules for monitoring LM Logs UtilizationThis should be part of the out-of-the-box LM Portal monitoring. Users should not have to rely on community-based modules for thisInclude projected monthly usage in the core datasource. This is not available in the community-based datasource, but can be roughly calculated with the below formulaProjected EOM Usage = (Usage MTD / days elapsed in month) × days in monthExpose the contracted amount for LM Logs as an API endpoint. The community-based propertysource tries to use the below API endpoint for this, but it does not work and LM Support confirms it is not a supported endpoint/santaba/rest/usage/contractInfoBelow are the community-based modules which are meant to accomplish this. Minor customizations are needed for the datasource because the propertysource does not work.Community Datasource: LogicMonitor_Portal_LM_Logs_Ingestion (Locator: P2WHC6)Works with minor customizations to allow setting of the contract amount manuallyCommunity Propertysource: addProperty_LogicMonitor_Portal_ContractInfo (Locator: CLGTY2)Does not work due to API endpoint for contractInfo not being supported
