Query your LLM costs broken down by a specific association property. This helps you understand how costs are distributed across different values of a property (e.g., by user_id, session_id, or any other association property you track).

​
Request Parameters

​
property_name
string
required
The name of the association property to group costs by (e.g., “user_id”, “session_id”).
​
start_time
string
required
The start time in ISO 8601 format (e.g., “2025-04-15T00:00:00Z”).
​
end_time
string
required
The end time in ISO 8601 format (e.g., “2025-04-28T23:00:00Z”).
​
env
string
List of environments to include in the calculation. Separated by comma.
​
selected_token_types
string
NEW Filter costs by specific token types. Separate multiple types with commas.Supported token types:
  • input_tokens or prompt_tokens (automatically normalized to prompt_tokens)
  • output_tokens or completion_tokens (automatically normalized to completion_tokens)
  • cache_read_input_tokens
  • cache_creation_input_tokens
  • Other token types as they appear in your data
Note: total_tokens cannot be used as a filter.Examples:
  • selected_token_types=input_tokens,output_tokens
  • selected_token_types=prompt_tokens,cache_read_input_tokens
  • selected_token_types=completion_tokens
When this parameter is omitted, costs for all token types are included.

​

The API can return special values:
  • "No_Association" as property_name if no spans have the requested association properties
  • "No_Value" as a value for spans that don’t have a value for the specified property
  • "Unknown_Value" for spans where the property exists but has an empty value
