batchMeterUsage

The CustomerIdentifier parameter is scheduled for deprecation. Use CustomerAWSAccountID instead.

These parameters are mutually exclusive. You can't specify both CustomerIdentifier and CustomerAWSAccountID in the same request.

To post metering records for customers, SaaS applications call BatchMeterUsage, which is used for metering SaaS flexible consumption pricing (FCP). Identical requests are idempotent and can be retried with the same records or a subset of records. Each BatchMeterUsage request is for only one product. If you want to meter usage for multiple products, you must make multiple BatchMeterUsage calls.

Usage records should be submitted in quick succession following a recorded event. Usage records aren't accepted 6 hours or more after an event.

BatchMeterUsage can process up to 25 UsageRecords at a time, and each request must be less than 1 MB in size. Optionally, you can have multiple usage allocations for usage data that's split into buckets according to predefined tags.

BatchMeterUsage returns a list of UsageRecordResult objects, which have each UsageRecord. It also returns a list of UnprocessedRecords, which indicate errors on the service side that should be retried.
