View your automation credit usage

Check how many automation credits your plan has used and when usage renews.

Written by Jonatan Gomes

You can check your automation credit usage on the Account page, see any extra-usage costs, and set a monthly budget to control spending beyond your plan's allowance.

Check your credit usage

On the Account page, the Plan and usage card shows your plan and its credit usage. Select View usage details for more detail.

To check usage against your plan's allowance:

  1. On the Account page, find the Subscription card.

  2. Select Subscription details to open the subscription page.

  3. Check Used this cycle. It shows the credits you've used out of your allowance, for example, "1,850 / 2,000 credits".

Once you pass your allowance, Used this cycle also shows how many credits over the allowance you've used and the cost of that extra usage in dollars.

Use Subscription details to open the subscription page. The Manage subscription button on the same card opens the billing portal instead.

Manage extra usage and your monthly budget

Extra usage keeps your workflows running after you've used your monthly credits. You pay only for the extra credits you use, and Sheetgo adds that cost to your next invoice.

  1. On the Account page, find the Plan and usage card.

  2. In the Extra usage section, select Manage to open Manage extra usage.

  3. Use Allow extra usage to turn extra usage on or off.

  4. In Monthly budget, enter an amount of $0 or more, or leave it empty for no limit.

Workflows pause when you spend your monthly extra-usage budget. A $0 budget prevents extra usage. Leaving the field empty means you haven't set a spending limit.

The Manage extra usage dialog shows Spent this period against your budget.

Read the extra-usage status

The Extra usage section shows a status tag. Depending on your settings and spending, it can read:

  • "Active"

  • "Disabled"

  • "Disabled · $0 budget"

  • "In use · $12.00"

  • "In use · $12.00 / $50.00"

  • "Budget reached · $50.00"

The dollar amounts above are examples. The tag can show extra-usage spending on its own or alongside the monthly budget.

Resume paused workflows

If you've used your monthly credits and extra usage is off, Sheetgo pauses your workflows. Turn on Allow extra usage to continue beyond your allowance, with a budget that permits spending or no limit. Otherwise, your workflows resume when your credits reset. The pause message shows the reset date.

If you've spent your extra-usage budget, raise or remove the Monthly budget to resume your workflows. You can also wait until your credits reset on the date shown in the message.

Team members see "Your team has reached its extra-usage budget". If you see this message, ask your team owner to raise the budget.

If your team expects high usage every month, contact Sales about an Enterprise plan with a credit allowance agreed with Sheetgo.
