Orb

Pull-based usage source — Plutus fetches on a schedule, unlike the push-based usage ingestion API.

  • Metered usage by billable metric, broken down by end-customer

Method: API Key (Bearer token)

  1. Open the Orb dashboard → Developers → API Keys → Create key.
  2. A standard API key is enough — Plutus only calls GET /subscriptions and GET /subscriptions/{id}/usage.
  3. Paste the key into Plutus. Plutus pulls daily usage for every active subscription’s billable metrics on a schedule.

Orb reports a quantity per billable metric but never a unit of measure, so usage rows here carry the metric name and no unit. Only subscriptions with status=active are pulled.
