# List Effective Spend Limits

`GET /v1/organizations/spend_limits/effective`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.anthropic.com`
- URL: `https://api.anthropic.com/v1/organizations/spend_limits/effective`
- Auth: none declared

List each member's effective spend limit and period-to-date spend.

Returns one row per (member, period) the member resolves a spend limit
for, with the `source` scope the spend limit was inherited from.
Paginates by member, so a member's periods never split across pages.
Supported for Claude Enterprise organizations only, not for Claude Console
organizations.

## Query parameters

- `user_ids[]` string[], nullable: Restrict the report to these members, by tagged user ID (`user_...`). At most 100 entries.
- `period[]` SpendLimitPeriod[], nullable: Restrict the report to these limit periods. Omit to return one row per period each member resolves a spend limit for.
- `limit` integer: Maximum number of members per page. A member's period rows never split across pages, so a page may carry more rows than this. Defaults to `20`.
- `page` string, nullable: Opaque cursor from a previous response's `next_page` field.

## Headers

- `anthropic-version` string: The version of the Claude API you want to use. Read more about versioning and our version history [here](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/api/versioning).

Successful Response

- ListEffectiveSpendLimitsResponse
  - `data` SpendSummary[], required
    - `actor` union, required
      - UserActorSchema: A user within the organization. `name` and `email_address` are null when the underlying account is unavailable or has been deleted; `deleted` is true only for deleted accounts.
        - `deleted` boolean, required: True only when the underlying account has been deleted.
        - `email_address` string, nullable, required: The user's email address. Null when the account is unavailable or has been deleted.
        - `name` string, nullable, required: The user's current display name. Null when the account is unavailable, has been deleted, or has no name set.
        - `type` 'user_actor', required: Actor type. Always `user_actor`.
        - `user_id` string, required: Tagged ID of the user.
      - ScopedApiKeyActorSchema: A scoped Admin API key acting on behalf of the organization.
        - `scoped_api_key_id` string, required
        - `type` 'scoped_api_key_actor', required
    - `amount` string, nullable, required: Effective limit amount as a non-negative integer decimal string in the minor unit of `currency` (cents for USD). `null` means no limit applies for this row's `period` — each period resolves independently, so another period may still cap this member.
    - `currency` string, required: ISO 4217 code of the organization's billing currency; the unit for `amount` and `period_to_date_spend`.
    - `period` 'daily' | 'monthly' | 'weekly', required
    - `period_to_date_spend` string, required: The member's spend so far in the current period, as a non-negative decimal string in the minor unit of `currency` (cents for USD). May carry fractional minor units up to three decimal places (e.g. `"12050.5"`) — metered usage is not rounded to whole cents. Reads as `"0"` when the spend reading is temporarily unavailable.
    - `scope` union, required
      - UserScope: Scope selecting a single member of the organization.
        - `type` 'user', required: Scope type. Always `user` for this scope.

        - `workspace_id` string, required: Tagged ID of the workspace the spend limit applies to.
      - UsageTierScope: Scope of the monthly spend cap Anthropic sets for a Claude Console organization from its usage tier, or a higher cap Anthropic granted the organization. Read-only; its `created_at` and `updated_at` are the organization's creation time, so `amount` can change while `updated_at` stays the same.

    - `source` union, required
      - UserScope: Scope selecting a single member of the organization.
