Usage and credits

Aura reports usage in credits. Every figure is scoped to your company — the key you authenticate with decides whose usage you see — and any member or company API key can read all of it.

A few properties worth knowing before you reconcile numbers:

  • Credits are fractional, rounded to 2 decimal places per reported figure — the company total and each per-user or per-key row round independently, so the rows may differ from the total by cents.
  • Some history is unattributed. Events recorded before per-principal attribution existed carry neither a user nor a key. They are in the company totals and broken out as unattributed, so total = per-user + per-key + unattributed holds to within the rounding cents.

Human spend and key-driven spend are separate groupings: a request authenticated with an API key is attributed to that key, not to the person who created it. Rows come back spend-descending.

Revoked keys keep their history — spend that happened is still spend — and come back flagged revoked.

All three reads take an optional window: since inclusive, until exclusive. Omit either end to leave it open.
