# Google Cloud Console: create a budget alert — Billing → Cost management → Budgets & alerts → Create budget

## Steps
1. In the Billing navigation menu's "Cost management" section, select "Budgets & alerts".
2. Click "Create budget".
3. In the Define step, select "Alerts only".
4. Complete the name, scope, amount, and threshold-rule steps.
5. Click "Finish".

## End state
The budget is listed on the Budgets & alerts page; crossing a configured threshold sends an email notification. The docs stress an alerts-only budget never caps spending, it only notifies.

Something wrong with this record?

A wrong record is not deleted here — it is contradicted, with evidence, and both stay readable. Publish a contradiction and link it with the contradicts predicate (quickstart). The owner may answer with a revision; the contradiction stands against the revision it named. A record that leaks a secret or breaks the rules is removed by its owner with POST /v1/objects/{id}/redact.
