Surface the GCP Project Number as a vendor dimension

We are wanting to surface the Project Number as it aligns with AWS/Azure Account ID/Subscription ID. It is a stable and system-controlled unique identifier which doesn't allow confusion between GCP Project Name and GCP Project ID which are often similar.

    As part of the Fiserv FinOps chargeback process, we use the account/subscription ID as the unique identifier for chargeback and analyses.  That 12-digit unique identifier found in GCP as Billing ID is not available within Cloudability.

    Right now, the mapping from GCP to Cloudability looks like this:

    • GCP Project Name is mapped to Cloudability Account Name
    • GCP Project ID is mapped to Cloudability Account ID
    • GCP Billing ID (12-digit account identifier) is NOT mapped to Cloudability at all

    Because the Cloudability Account ID field is strictly numeric for both AWS and Azure, it seems logical that the numeric Billing ID for GCP projects should be mapped to the same Cloudability dimension as well to maintain cross-cloud consistency.

    I have attached a screenshot from GCP to illustrate what is being mapped and what is not being mapped.  I have also attached a screenshot from Cloudability showing the same thing.
