    For those sites with a large number of tags for a given field (hundreds of shots for example), the "Show only tags from my jobs" checkbox in the Tags preferences can be used to filter down the size of the pull-down list.

     

    Tags and the Qube! API

    The tags are attributes at the top level of the job object, and are all prefaced with prod_.

    • prod_show
    • prod_shot
    • prod_seq
    • prod_client
    • prod_dept
    • prod_custom1
    • prod_custom2
    • prod_custom3
    • prod_custom4
    • prod_custom5

    They are accessible as top-level keys in the job dictionary as:

    job['prod_show'], job['prod_seq'],  etc...

    Tags and the Qube! MySQL Data Warehouse

    If your site wishes to write custom cost or usage report generators, the various tags are all in tables and columns which follow a naming convention.

    For example, the Show tag's internal name is prod_show, so its data warehouse dimension table is named prod_show_dim, and the show lookup key in the other tables is named prod_show_sk.  For the Shot tag, the internal name is prod_shot, and the table and columns are prod_shot_dim and prod_shot_sk.

    Here's how to find the sum total of CPU-minutes used for each show for a range of jobs (in your case your WHERE clause would probably specify a time range, and not "jobs greater than 41000":

    USE pfx_dw;
     
    SELECT 
        prod_show.name
        , SEC_TO_TIME(SUM(cpu_seconds)) AS cpu_minutes
    FROM 
        job_fact AS fact
        INNER JOIN
            prod_show_dim AS prod_show 
        ON 
            fact.prod_show_sk=prod_show.prod_show_sk 
    WHERE
        job_id > 41000
    GROUP BY 
        prod_show.prod_show_sk;
