New usage may take time to appear.

For your remaining included and purchased credits, use Balance.

Unsupported or repeated query parameters return 400. Errors follow Ollama's JSON error format.

Time ranges

Every range ends at the time of the request. For example, at 02:30 UTC on October 1, 24h starts at 02:00 UTC on September 30. It returns 24 complete hourly buckets followed by the current 02:00–02:30 bucket. The 7d and 30d ranges return seven and thirty complete days, followed by today so far.

Buckets appear in chronological order, including zeroes for hours or days with no recorded requests. The final bucket covers the current hour or day and has partial: true.

All timestamps are in UTC. Each from is inclusive and each until is exclusive.

Usage totals and buckets

totals summarizes usage across the entire range. buckets breaks that usage into hours or days.

granularity is set automatically: hour for 24h and day for 7d and 30d. The top-level from and until describe the entire range; each bucket has its own boundaries.

partial indicates whether the hour or day is still in progress, rather than whether all usage has been recorded.

Model breakdown

Add group_by=model to see usage by model:

curl 'https://ollama.com/api/usage?range=7d&group_by=model' \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $OLLAMA_API_KEY"

The response includes groups in both totals and every bucket.

Currently, up to 10 groups appear under groups, ranked by total usage_usd across the range.

Every bucket uses the same selection and order. Groups with no requests in a bucket are omitted; an empty bucket has groups: [].

Additional groups are combined under remainder, omitted when empty. Totals always include all usage.

For usage that includes requests from legacy plans, only request counts are available. If the range includes legacy requests, groups are ranked by request count instead of cost.

Rate limits

This endpoint allows 10 requests per minute per user, shared across API keys and devices. We recommend polling once per minute. A 429 response includes a Retry-After header with the number of seconds to wait before retrying.

Team usage

By default, everyone sees their own usage (scope=self).

Team admins can use scope=team to see usage for the whole team:

curl 'https://ollama.com/api/usage?range=7d&scope=team' \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $OLLAMA_API_KEY"

Coming soon

We plan to add custom time ranges, usage breakdowns by API key, and breakdowns by team member for team admins.
