Hourly usage data for all products is now available in the [Get hourly usage by product family API](https://docs.datadoghq.com/api/latest/usage-metering.md#get-hourly-usage-by-product-family). Refer to [Migrating from the V1 Hourly Usage APIs to V2](https://docs.datadoghq.com/account_management/guide/hourly-usage-migration.md) for the associated migration guide. This endpoint requires the `usage_read` permission. OAuth apps require the `usage_read` authorization [scope](https://docs.datadoghq.com/api/latest/scopes.md#usage-metering) to access this endpoint. ### Arguments #### Query Strings | Name | Type | Description | | -------------------------- | ------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | start_hr [*required*] | string | Datetime in ISO-8601 format, UTC, precise to hour: `[YYYY-MM-DDThh]` for usage beginning at this hour. | | end_hr | string | Datetime in ISO-8601 format, UTC, precise to hour: `[YYYY-MM-DDThh]` for usage ending **before** this hour. | ### Response {% tab title="200" %} OK {% tab title="Model" %} Response containing the number of netflow events indexed for each hour for a given organization. | Parent field | Field | Type | Description | | ------------ | -------------------- | --------- | ---------------------------------------------- | | | usage | [object] | Get hourly usage for Network Flows. | | usage | hour | date-time | The hour for the usage. | | usage | indexed_events_count | int64 | Contains the number of netflow events indexed. | | usage | org_name | string | The organization name. | | usage | public_id | string | The organization public ID. | {% /tab %} {% tab title="Example" %} ```json { "usage": [ { "hour": "2019-09-19T10:00:00.000Z", "indexed_events_count": "integer", "org_name": "string", "public_id": "string" } ] } ``` {% /tab %} {% /tab %} {% tab title="400" %} Bad Request {% tab title="Model" %} Error response object. | Field | Type | Description | | ------------------------ | -------- | ------------------------------------ | | errors [*required*] | [string] | Array of errors returned by the API. | {% /tab %} {% tab title="Example" %} ```json { "errors": [ "Bad Request" ] } ``` {% /tab %} {% /tab %} {% tab title="403" %} Forbidden - User is not authorized {% tab title="Model" %} Error response object. | Field | Type | Description | | ------------------------ | -------- | ------------------------------------ | | errors [*required*] | [string] | Array of errors returned by the API. | {% /tab %} {% tab title="Example" %} ```json { "errors": [ "Bad Request" ] } ``` {% /tab %} {% /tab %} {% tab title="429" %} Too many requests {% tab title="Model" %} Error response object. | Field | Type | Description | | ------------------------ | -------- | ------------------------------------ | | errors [*required*] | [string] | Array of errors returned by the API. | {% /tab %} {% tab title="Example" %} ```json { "errors": [ "Bad Request" ] } ``` {% /tab %} {% /tab %} ### Code Example ##### \# Required query arguments export start_hr="CHANGE_ME" \# Curl command curl -X GET "https://api.datadoghq.com/api/v1/usage/network_flows?start_hr=${start_hr}" \ -H "Accept: application/json" \ -H "DD-API-KEY: ${DD_API_KEY}" \ -H "DD-APPLICATION-KEY: ${DD_APP_KEY}" ##### ```python """ get hourly usage for network flows returns "OK" response """ from datadog_api_client import ApiClient, Configuration from datadog_api_client.v1.api.usage_metering_api import UsageMeteringApi from datetime import datetime from dateutil.tz import tzutc configuration = Configuration() with ApiClient(configuration) as api_client: api_instance = UsageMeteringApi(api_client) response = api_instance.get_usage_network_flows( start_hr=datetime(2021, 11, 11, 11, 11, 11, 111000, tzinfo=tzutc()), ) print(response) ``` #### Instructions First [install the library and its dependencies](https://docs.datadoghq.com/api/latest.md?code-lang=python) and then save the example to `example.py` and run following commands: DD_SITE="datadoghq.com" DD_API_KEY="" DD_APP_KEY="" python3 "example.py" ##### ```ruby #
