Check account usage and quota limits before starting repeated or long-running work. Set an API credential for the account you want to inspect. These endpoints return account-level information. Do not interpret every total as usage for a single project.

​
1. Read account usage and quotas

In Studio, open the account’s General settings and copy its account ID. Read usage with GET /accounts/{account_id}/usage:
read-usage.sh

​
2. Compare usage with quota totals

The response includes the account ID, project count, and credits spent. Resource buckets such as storage, bandwidth, and api_calls include used, total, remaining, and percent_used. A total of -1 means unlimited. Inspect period_start and period_end for the billing period, and read warnings for buckets approaching or over their limit. Usage and quota totals come from the same response.

​
Verify the result

Compare matching resources and time periods. A credit balance, a quota, and a recorded usage total answer different questions; one does not replace the others. If a request is rejected, inspect its error for the specific limit or credit condition. The Billing and Usage API explains budgets, credits, and attribution. For recurring work, check usage again after a representative run before relying on its expected consumption.
