Use the REST API to Check Your Account Balance

Another method of tracking metrics is to use the Oracle Cloud Metering API to monitor your cloud account and set alert thresholds to monitor the account balance.

To use the API, you must have the following:
  • A paid or a promotional subscription to an Oracle Cloud service

  • Sign-in credentials to access the Oracle Cloud Metering API

  • Required roles to access the service and perform GET requests

  • cURL application

For information on how to use the Oracle Cloud Metering API, see Oracle Cloud Account Metering REST API documentation.
