A graphical representation of your daily credit consumption will be displayed below your plan details. Use the billing period drop-down menu above the bar graph to select which month you want to view.
Note
Customers on the trial edition can view how many credits they have used so far. Paying customers can see how many credits they have used each month.
Hover your mouse over the bar chart to reveal your daily credit consumption.
Credit allowances🔗
Contracted customers can view their total usage across the duration of their contract. You can view your credit allowances, and you can view how many of those credits have been consumed since the beginning of your contract.
To view the total number of credits you have consumed during this period of your contract, look to the right of the graphical representation of your daily credit consumption.
Credit breakdown🔗
The credit breakdown table provides a granular view of your credit usage, detailing the total credits consumed within the specified month, typically displayed at the project and/or pipeline level. You can observe where costs are accruing.
By segmenting the data, you can identify how many credits each project (or specific pipelines) are consuming, enabling better resource management, optimization of workflows, and accurate internal cost allocation. You can download a CSV for each tab, or the data is also available via the Consumption API for further reporting.
Additional Users🔗
The Additional Users tab in the credit breakdown table provides visibility into individual user credit charges incurred during the current billing period. This section is specifically for tracking individual users who have been added to the account above the limit defined in your base contract.
Note
If you have not exceeded your contracted user limit during the selected billing period, the tab remains hidden and the message "No additional usage charges for the current billing period" is displayed.
When charges exist, the table includes the following columns:
| Column header | Description |
|---|---|
| User ID | The email address of the user who incurred the charge. If a user has been removed from the project and their account deactivated, they will appear as a Deactivated User. |
| Date | The date the charge was incurred (YYYY/MM/DD). |
| Credits consumed | The number of credits attributed to that specific user for exceeding the contract seat limit. |
