Key points
- The post says the Billable Usage API is for self-serve accounts: one endpoint returns the account’s usage and cost broken down by product and service period, covering usage-based products including Workers, R2, D1, Workers AI, Vectorize, Images and Stream.
- Cloudflare says usage and cost data are currently updated daily while it works towards more real-time data.
- Each row is one charge period for one product and includes running totals for the billing period (CumulatedPricingQuantity and CumulatedContractedCost); most field names map to the FinOps FOCUS specification, without claiming full conformance yet.
