GET/consumption_history/v2/projects

Retrieve project consumption metrics

Returns consumption metrics for up to limit projects per page. If project_ids is omitted, projects in the organization are included across pages (use cursor). If project_ids is provided, the response is limited to those projects (up to 100). Available for accounts on Launch, Scale, Agent, Business, and Enterprise plans.

History starts when the account upgrades to an eligible plan.

The metrics query parameter is required. Supported values: compute_unit_seconds, root_branch_bytes_month, child_branch_bytes_month, instant_restore_bytes_month, public_network_transfer_bytes, private_network_transfer_bytes, extra_branches_month, snapshot_storage_bytes_month.

Consumption metrics within each project are returned in ascending time order (oldest first). This request does not wake project computes.

Quick start

REST API - curl
curl "https://console.neon.tech/api/v2/consumption_history/v2/projects?from=$FROM&to=$TO&granularity=$GRANULARITY&org_id=$ORG_ID&metrics=$METRICS" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $NEON_API_KEY"

Every field below is optional. An empty body works too.

Also available in
import { createApiClient } from '@neondatabase/api-client';

const api = createApiClient({ apiKey: process.env.NEON_API_KEY });
const { data } = await api.getConsumptionHistoryPerProjectV2({ from: process.env.FROM, to: process.env.TO, granularity: process.env.GRANULARITY, org_id: process.env.ORG_ID, metrics: process.env.METRICS });

Parameters

Cursor
cursor
string

Cursor from the previous response (pagination.cursor). Pass it to fetch the next page of projects. Pages are ordered by project creation order (newest first).

Limit
limit
integerdefault: 10

Maximum number of projects per page. Allowed range: 1 to 100. Default: 10.

Project IDs
project_ids
array

Optional project IDs to filter the response (up to 100). If omitted, projects in the organization are included across pages (use cursor and limit).

Pass multiple IDs as repeated query parameters or a comma-separated list:

  • project_ids=cold-poetry-09157238&project_ids=quiet-snow-71788278
  • project_ids=cold-poetry-09157238,quiet-snow-71788278
From
from
string

Specify the start date-time for the consumption period. The date-time value is rounded according to the specified granularity. For example, 2024-03-15T15:30:00Z for daily granularity will be rounded to 2024-03-15T00:00:00Z. The specified date-time value must respect the specified granularity:

  • For hourly, consumption metrics are limited to the last 168 hours.
  • For daily, consumption metrics are limited to the last 60 days.
  • For monthly, consumption metrics are limited to the last year.

The earliest allowed from value is March 1, 2024, at 00:00:00 UTC. Metrics are returned from when the account upgraded to an eligible plan, which may be later than that date.

To
to
string

Specify the end date-time for the consumption period. The date-time value is rounded according to the specified granularity. For example, 2024-03-15T15:30:00Z for daily granularity will be rounded to 2024-03-15T00:00:00Z. The specified date-time value must respect the specified granularity:

  • For hourly, consumption metrics are limited to the last 168 hours.
  • For daily, consumption metrics are limited to the last 60 days.
  • For monthly, consumption metrics are limited to the last year.
Granularity
granularity
string

Specify the granularity of consumption metrics. Hourly, daily, and monthly metrics are available for the last 168 hours, 60 days, and 1 year, respectively.

Organization
org_id
string

Organization ID. Metrics are returned for projects in this organization.

Metrics
metrics
array

Required. List the metrics to return. Supported values:

  • compute_unit_seconds
  • root_branch_bytes_month
  • child_branch_bytes_month
  • instant_restore_bytes_month
  • public_network_transfer_bytes
  • private_network_transfer_bytes
  • extra_branches_month
  • snapshot_storage_bytes_month

Pass multiple values as repeated query parameters or a comma-separated list:

  • metrics=compute_unit_seconds&metrics=extra_branches_month
  • metrics=compute_unit_seconds,extra_branches_month

Response

200

Project consumption metrics for the Neon account.

Depth

Errors

403

Not available for this account. Project consumption history requires a Launch, Scale, Agent, Business, or Enterprise plan.

404

Account is not a member of the organization specified by org_id.

406

The from and to range is not valid for the selected granularity. Adjust the range or choose a different granularity.

429

Too many requests

default

General error

This endpoint can return the standard Neon API error response.

Response fields

  • message Required. Human-readable error message.
  • code Required. Machine-readable error code.
  • request_id Optional. Request identifier for debugging. You can provide one with the X-Request-ID header.

Retry guidance

If no response is returned, the request may still have reached the server. This is why retry safety depends on the method and status code.

Idempotent methods (GET, HEAD, OPTIONS) are generally safe to retry after a network error or timeout. Non-idempotent methods (POST, PATCH, DELETE, PUT) can change state, so avoid automatic retries unless your workflow can tolerate duplicate effects.

Responses with 423 Locked or 503 Service Unavailable are safe to retry. 423 Locked means the resource is temporarily locked, usually because another operation is in progress.
