Does anyone know how to identify unused or unattached resources in Cloudability? I am looking to incorporate this information to an optimization dashboard

Hi Nick,  
To get the unattached EBS volumes you should look for state = unattached which would give you the estimated idle savings, see attached screenshot.
Unfortunetly I do not think this can be added to a Dashboard.
Hope this information helps

Thank you for your answer @Heather Stewart! 
Just out of curiosity, is there a particular reason why the EBS state is not available for adding into a dashboard?

Indeed, it would be great to have rightsizing recommendations available in reports and dashboards!

Hello,
I fully agree with you Nick and Sergey ! All recommendations should be available in dashboards and reports. It would help us to show the added value of the tool.
