When your project enters production, it’s essential to monitor your exact API usage and remaining credits. The solutions outlined here help avoid exhausting your quota and ensure uninterrupted data streaming.
Using dedicated endpoint
The /api_usage
endpoint provides real-time information about your current plan and remaining credits. Each call to this endpoint consumes 1 API credit.
Using response headers
Each API query includes api-credits-used
and api-credits-left
response headers, indicating the number of credits used and the remaining credits after the request. Adding these two values provides the total credit limit for your plan.
Using the dashboard
Regularly review your personal dashboard's statistics page. It provides key metrics, including the average API credits used, peak usage, and other essential data.
