batchMeterUsage

BatchMeterUsage is called from a SaaS application listed on AWS Marketplace to post metering records for a set of customers.

For identical requests, the API is idempotent; requests can be retried with the same records or a subset of the input records.

Every request to BatchMeterUsage is for one product. If you need to meter usage for multiple products, you must make multiple calls to BatchMeterUsage.

Usage records are expected to be submitted as quickly as possible after the event that is being recorded, and are not accepted more than 6 hours after the event.

BatchMeterUsage can process up to 25 UsageRecords at a time.

A UsageRecord can optionally include multiple usage allocations, to provide customers with usage data split into buckets by tags that you define (or allow the customer to define).

BatchMeterUsage returns a list of UsageRecordResult objects, showing the result for each UsageRecord, as well as a list of UnprocessedRecords, indicating errors in the service side that you should retry.

BatchMeterUsage requests must be less than 1MB in size.

For an example of using BatchMeterUsage, see BatchMeterUsage code example in the AWS Marketplace Seller Guide.
