Get credit balance

The workspace’s remaining credit allowance. Credits are consumed by paid actions such as content generation and technical site audits.

API calls do not consume credits. For API request volume see Usage. The two are kept separate deliberately so neither is mistaken for the other.


GET /v1/brands/{brand_id}/credits

Authorization

Header	Type	Required
`Authorization`	`Bearer asky_sk_…`	required

Path parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`brand_id`	`uuid`	required	From List brands

Query parameters

None.

Any parameter you pass returns 400 invalid_request naming the offending key, rather than being ignored silently.

Response fields

Field	Type	Description
`data.brand_id`	`uuid`	required
`data.has_data`	`boolean`	required. `false` when the workspace has no billing record. Every other field is then absent
`data.included_credits_remaining`	`number`	From the plan. Refills each billing period
`data.topup_credits_remaining`	`number`	Purchased packs. Drained only after the included pool
`data.total_credits_remaining`	`number`	The two above, summed
`data.current_period_end`	`timestamptz \| null`	When the included pool refills
`request_id`	`string`	required. Also returned as the `x-request-id` header. Quote it when contacting support

Errors

Status	Code	When
400	`invalid_request`	A parameter is unknown or malformed. The message names it
401	`invalid_token`	The key is missing, malformed, or does not exist
401	`token_expired`	The key passed its expiry date
401	`token_revoked`	The key was revoked
404	`not_found`	The brand does not exist, or this key is not allowed to reach it. The two are deliberately indistinguishable
429	`rate_limited`	Over 300 requests per minute. See the `Retry-After` header

Notes

Credits belong to the workspace, not the brand. The brand in the path is how the request is authorized, not how the balance is scoped — two brands in one workspace return the same numbers.

Check has_data before reading any figure. When it is false the balance fields are absent rather than zero, because “no billing record” and “nothing left” are different states.
