Manage Unbilled Usage Balances with API Calls

You can call several APIs to set the unbilled usage balance threshold for accounts to:

• trigger email messages and event notifications,
• reset an account's unbilled usage balance to zero, and 
• obtain information about an account’s unbilled usage.

• Use the API call set_usage_threshold_m to set the Billing-Period-To-Date or Month-To-Date unbilled usage threshold amount on the master plan instance for client-level event notifications or master plan instance-level event notifications. In addition, the API also allows setting threshold levels.
   
• Use the API call set_usg_mtd_ptd_bal_m to reset the client or master plan instance Billing-Period-To-Date or Month-To-Date unbilled usage balance to zero.

  Note: Resetting unbilled usage balances affects only email messages and event notifications. Actual balances owed by customers for accrued usage will not be affected.
