Count calls on your own servers.

Each authenticated call to an API product produces a usage event. Spectrum adds them up by day and month, and partners and admins see the totals on dashboards.

What gets recorded.

Partner, API product, path, status, latency and environment. IDs in the path collapse to {id}, so usage groups by route.

Usage event

Illustrative

Partner: Partner C
API product: orders
Path: /api/v1/orders/{id}
Status: 200
Latency: 84 ms
Environment: Production

Totals and reports.

Reports show volume by API product and the busiest endpoints. Sandbox usage is counted separately.

You set the price.

Put a per-call price on an API product, with price bands by volume. A product with no price charges nothing.

Admins can generate a usage invoice, with a PDF, for any partner and month.

Your own licence is a separate count.

Metering is how you bill your partners. Your Spectrum licence has its own call volume, set by its tier.
