Usage Dashboard
Understand how to read your organization's usage dashboard.
Your organization's usage dashboard gives you a centralized view of how much of each quota has been used, how much remains, and when each quota refreshes, giving full visibility into your organization's total usage.
To open the usage dashboard, click the app launcher in the top navigation bar, then choose Account & Usage. From the left menu, go to Usage Dashboard.

You'll see a section for each quota type which displays usage summaries for each type of quota, for example, quotas for credits or events. Each quota is measured and refreshed independently.

Quota refresh period
The label below each card tells you when the quota refreshes.
- Resets on [date]: On the specified date, usage resets to zero and a new quota cycle begins. This is commonly used for recurring monthly metrics such as credits, and events.
- Resets daily: Usage is recalculated every day.
- Date range, for example, May 1 – December 30, 2026: The quota is valid only within the specified period and doesn't follow calendar-month cycles. Any unused quota remaining at the end of the period expires. This is commonly used for channel messaging packages.
Credits
Credits are required for selected usage-based features in AIQUA and AIRIS, such as Appier AI Agent tasks, reports, and predictions.
- Credits are only consumed only when you perform an action that requires them. For the full list of credit-charged actions and their costs, see Credit Usage.
- Credits reset at the start of each cycle, and the monthly credit allowance doesn't carry over to the next month.
Shared credit balanceIf you subscribe to both AIQUA and AIRIS, your credit balance is shared across both products as a single pool. Credit usage from the same monthly balance, giving your team flexibility to allocate
Recommendation
This section shows how the Recommendation module is being used, with two metrics: Exposures and SKUs. If recommendation usage exceeds your quota, you'll need to upgrade your plan.
Exposures
The Exposures metric shows the total number of times a recommendations were requested, regardless of whether the user interacts afterward or how many items were contained in the recommendation.
SKUs
The SKUs metric shows the total number of products in your product feed that are available for the recommendation scenarios to train on and recommend. SKUs are recalculated daily to reflect the number of items in your product feed, allowing you to monitor how close you are to your SKU limit.
Channels
This section displays the usage for each messaging channel enabled for your organization. Supported channels may include app push, web push, WhatsApp, SMS OTP, Email, and other messaging channels that are enabled in your contract and billed by Appier.
Message quota refreshes differently depending on the channel type:
- Prepaid message (for example, SMS OTP, email): Refreshes after the displayed date range.
- Multiple packages: If you have multiple contracts, you can view all available contract packages from the dashboard, indicated by a +1 badge on the card. Usage and quota are displayed for one contract at a time. When the current contract's quota is fully consumed or the contract expires, the system automatically switches to the next available package.
- Monthly-refresh message (for example, app push, web push): Refreshes on the first of each month and expires at month end.
