It’s simple to use: you only need to submit your access_key. The API will return the usage statistics for your account.
Requests to this endpoint are not counted against your usage quota, but they are still subject to rate limiting. This ensures fair use and stability of the platform. If you exceed the rate limit, your requests may be temporarily blocked.

​
Getting started

​
REST

The Usage API, like all of ScreenshotMAX’s APIs, is organized around REST. It is designed to use predictable, resource-oriented URL’s and to use HTTP status codes to indicate errors.

​
HTTPS

The Usage API requires all communications to be secured TLS 1.2 or greater.

​
API Versions

All of ScreenshotMAX’s APIs are versioned. The Usage API is currently on Version 1.

​
Your Access Key

Your access key is your unique authentication key to be used to access ScreenshotMAX APIs. To authenticate your requests, you will need to append your access key to the base URL as a query parameter for GET requests. For POST requests, you can include your access key in the request body as a JSON object. You can also use the X-Access-Key header to pass your access key. You can find your access key in your account dashboard.

Base URL
