Account-level charges

An account can have two levels of charges: account-level charges and policy-level charges. An account-level charge is a charge that is owned by the account directly (such as a charge for a late fee). For more information on policy-level charges, seePolicy-level charges.

Use the following endpoint to query for account-level charges.

  • GET /billing/v1/accounts/{accountId}/charges

  • GET /billing/v1/charges/{chargeId}

Charges are associated with both accounts and policy periods, and a given charge cannot be considered to be owned entirely by either an account or a policy period. Therefore, Cloud API considers charges to be a top-level entity. To get an account's charges, you use an endpoint that has the account as the parent. But to get details about a specific charge, you use an endpoint where the charge is the parent.

For example, the following request queries for the account-level charges for account bc:707. The response specifies one charge for a $15 late fee.
