Check your quota usage

There are several methods to monitor your historical quota usage, which can be beneficial for billing purposes. Here are some key metrics you can check:

• Your usage hours

• The amount of bandwidth consumed

In addition, you can view your configured quota amounts, and what is inUse on the quota endpoint.

The contractId is only relevant on the commit quotas. There is no contractId for OnDemand.

Quota usage example

Endpoint:

https://api.i3d.net/v3/flexMetal/quota/usage

Below is an example of an OnDemand quota for 100x and a commit quota of 2x.

{
    "instanceType": {
        "id": 129,
        "name": "bm7.std.8"
    },
    "quotaType": "onDemand",
    "contractId": "",
    "quota": 100,
    "usage": 0
},
{
    "instanceType": {
        "id": 129,
        "name": "bm7.std.8"
    },
    "quotaType": "commit",
    "contractId": "PO12345",
    "quota": 2,
    "usage": 0
}

To obtain historical usage data for a specific period, you can utilize the following endpoint: https://api.i3d.net/v3/flexMetal/usage?startDate=2025-01-01&endDate=2025-02-01

Here is a usage example: totalHours are the billable hours. bandwidthOut is the number of bytes that are billable for bandwidth consumption.

"startedAt": "2025-01-08T00:00:00.000Z",
"endedAt": "2025-01-08T13:42:09.000Z",
"totalHours": 14,
"totalMinutes": 823,
"bandwidthIn": 31243322,
"bandwidthOut": 670853110
