Getting started

We’ll use curl for our API call examples. You could also consider a dedicated tool for developing API requests (like Postman).

Authenticate

The API key for the Reporting API is automatically enabled with access to the Residential Proxy.

Data freshness

Usage data is aggregated hourly, a few minutes after each hour completes. A calendar day (UTC) is final approximately 15 minutes after midnight UTC, once its last hour is aggregated. For daily reporting jobs, query after 00:30 UTC with to=YYYY-MM-DDT23:59:59Z.
Usage is recorded when a connection closes, so a session that crosses midnight counts toward the day in which it ends.
