Understand usage
The API Console groups requests by project, key, service, status, and time. Last-used timestamps help identify active credentials. Service allowances and rate limits are enforced by the permissions and plan attached to the project.
Credits and balance
Where a paid API service applies, the project draws from its available balance. The console shows current funds, recent spend, and funding controls. Basic scheduling access may have a free allowance while additional services use separate metering.
Respond to unexpected activity
If usage rises unexpectedly, identify the key and endpoint, disable the credential, rotate it, and review application logs. Contact support with request identifiers rather than the secret itself.
