Centralized API monitoring, where can I view usage?

I manage several APIs and need a centralized way to monitor their usage and token consumption.

Where can I view detailed metrics like call volumes and token costs per API?

Ideally, I’d like a dashboard or tool that supports multiple APIs. Any recommendations?

Hi @IT_Dep_SuccessGlo,

Welcome to the Google AI Forum! :confetti_ball: :confetti_ball:

Simple Monitoring
The simplest way to get an overview of your API usage is through the Google Cloud Console’s API Dashboard. Navigate to the APIs & Services section in the Google Cloud Console. The main Dashboard is displayed by default, showing an overview of your API usage.

Here is an example for referencing dashboard images - doc.

Advanced Monitoring and Custom Dashboards
For more granular and customized monitoring across multiple APIs and projects, Google Cloud Monitoring is the ideal solution. It allows you to create custom dashboards, set up alerts, and access metrics data programmatically.

Hello Krish,
Thank you for the helpful overview!

I’m new to Google Cloud and would appreciate some additional guidance.
I’m specifically trying to track token consumption per API and the associated costs for each API.

I’ve explored the Google Cloud Console’s API Dashboard and looked into Google Cloud Monitoring, but I haven’t been able to locate where these specific metrics are displayed

Is there any guide or document I can read?

Hi @IT_Dep_SuccessGlo,

In the Google Cloud Console, navigate to “APIs & Services” to view detailed usage metrics.

For a more direct view, visit the Google AI Studio dashboard and click on the “Usage and Billing” section for a clear breakdown of token consumption and costs.
