About Usage Graphs

You can view a chart indicating how much data and API requests have been consumed, and shows how many message units were received.

Notes:

• Each message unit contains 100 KB of data in a message. Message units are counted by the number of encoded characters in a message. Anypoint MQ charges you an extra message unit for each 100 KB of extra data in a message over 100 KB.

• Every API call to Anypoint MQ counts as one API request. This includes sending, receiving, and acknowledging messages as well all operations on queues and exchanges.

• Up to 10 messages can be retrieved from a single API call, which only bills as one request. Even if the request to retrieve messages does not return a message, like if the queue is empty, it still bills as a single API request.

• Monthly billing usage information is delayed by 24 hours.
