tl;dr: I am looking for an API that tells me how much credit I have with Anthropic but cannot find one. And I have some questions.. :)
Hi, all. I hope you are having a great day.
I've been using Anthropic APIs for my side project, which so far has been fun.
For an admin dashboard, I am looking for an API to show how much credit I have left with Anthropic, and to my surprise, I cannot find it in the official documentation.
Upon inspecting network calls when visiting Anthropic Console page, I can see that they already have an internal endpoint, which is https://console.anthropic.com/api/organizations/{org-id}/prepaid/credits ( I haven't tried hitting it from my app, but I image they have CORS enabled ).
I also see a few other existing (internal) endpoints that seem to be useful [0] to make public and also bake into client SDK, such as /invoice_balance*,* /invoices*,* and /current_spend. And the below are my questions
If billing APIs already exist and I missed, I am terribly sorry. Can someone kindly point me to relevant doc(s) please?
Does anyone know if Anthropic plans to release "billing APIs"?
Is there a process to request APIs, and perhaps we can vote candidate APIs as a community?
I searched this community first and failed to find a similar question, so I decided to post.
Thanks everyone!
Warm regards
[0] With billing APIs, a few example use cases I can see are
dynamically change AI model depending on the remaining balance
set alerts based on current usage / remaining balance / invoice
maybe, if an app were to be powered by donation, you could show the current credit when asking for donations?

I just paid for the Pro version of Claude. Downloaded Cursor and when I went to add the 'API key', it seems like I also need to pay for Anthropic?
I am a little confused. First time doing the Cursor IDE setup. I am a Rider dev.
I want to be able to use Cursor without any limitations. Not bragging but money is not a concern. I make enough as a Software Consultant to afford those memberships.
Also, I heard about bolt.new or something along those lines? I checked it out but it seems towards opinionated out-of-the-box frontend applications.
Any advice?
Thanks!!!
I'm using Claude Code in my terminal and logged in to my Pro account. According to Anthropic's support article when rate limit is reached, I should have the option to switch to pay-as-you-go usage with an Anthropic Console account. I just hit my rate limit and am presented with no options. What should I do to be able to resume my coding session with Console/API billing? I have a Console account with some pre-paid credit available.
