MarketplaceMetering

Client

class MarketplaceMetering.Client

A low-level client representing AWSMarketplace Metering:

import boto3

client = boto3.client('meteringmarketplace')

These are the available methods:

batch_meter_usage(**kwargs)

BatchMeterUsage is called from a SaaS application listed on the AWS Marketplace to post metering records for a set of customers.

For identical requests, the API is idempotent; requests can be retried with the same records or a subset of the input records.

Every request to BatchMeterUsage is for one product. If you need to meter usage for multiple products, you must make multiple calls to BatchMeterUsage.

BatchMeterUsage can process up to 25 UsageRecords at a time.

Request Syntax

response = client.batch_meter_usage(
    UsageRecords=[
        {
            'Timestamp': datetime(2015, 1, 1),
            'CustomerIdentifier': 'string',
            'Dimension': 'string',
            'Quantity': 123
        },
    ],
    ProductCode='string'
)
Parameters
  • UsageRecords (list) --

    [REQUIRED]

    The set of UsageRecords to submit. BatchMeterUsage accepts up to 25 UsageRecords at a time.

    • (dict) --

      A UsageRecord indicates a quantity of usage for a given product, customer, dimension and time.

      Multiple requests with the same UsageRecords as input will be deduplicated to prevent double charges.

      • Timestamp (datetime) -- [REQUIRED]

        Timestamp, in UTC, for which the usage is being reported.

        Your application can meter usage for up to one hour in the past. Make sure the timestamp value is not before the start of the software usage.

      • CustomerIdentifier (string) -- [REQUIRED]

        The CustomerIdentifier is obtained through the ResolveCustomer operation and represents an individual buyer in your application.

      • Dimension (string) -- [REQUIRED]

        During the process of registering a product on AWS Marketplace, up to eight dimensions are specified. These represent different units of value in your application.

      • Quantity (integer) --

        The quantity of usage consumed by the customer for the given dimension and time. Defaults to 0 if not specified.

  • ProductCode (string) --

    [REQUIRED]

    Product code is used to uniquely identify a product in AWS Marketplace. The product code should be the same as the one used during the publishing of a new product.

Return type

can_paginate(operation_name)

Check if an operation can be paginated.

Parameters
operation_name (string) -- The operation name. This is the same name as the method name on the client. For example, if the method name is create_foo, and you'd normally invoke the operation as client.create_foo(**kwargs), if the create_foo operation can be paginated, you can use the call client.get_paginator("create_foo").
Returns
True if the operation can be paginated, False otherwise.
generate_presigned_url(ClientMethod, Params=None, ExpiresIn=3600, HttpMethod=None)

Generate a presigned url given a client, its method, and arguments

Parameters
  • ClientMethod (string) -- The client method to presign for
  • Params (dict) -- The parameters normally passed to ClientMethod.
  • ExpiresIn (int) -- The number of seconds the presigned url is valid for. By default it expires in an hour (3600 seconds)
  • HttpMethod (string) -- The http method to use on the generated url. By default, the http method is whatever is used in the method's model.
Returns

The presigned url

get_paginator(operation_name)

Create a paginator for an operation.

Parameters
operation_name (string) -- The operation name. This is the same name as the method name on the client. For example, if the method name is create_foo, and you'd normally invoke the operation as client.create_foo(**kwargs), if the create_foo operation can be paginated, you can use the call client.get_paginator("create_foo").
Raises OperationNotPageableError
Raised if the operation is not pageable. You can use the client.can_paginate method to check if an operation is pageable.
Return type
L{botocore.paginate.Paginator}
Returns
A paginator object.
get_waiter(waiter_name)

Returns an object that can wait for some condition.

Parameters

Returns
The specified waiter object.
Return type
botocore.waiter.Waiter
meter_usage(**kwargs)

API to emit metering records. For identical requests, the API is idempotent. It simply returns the metering record ID.

MeterUsage is authenticated on the buyer's AWS account, generally when running from an EC2 instance on the AWS Marketplace.

register_usage(**kwargs)

Paid container software products sold through AWS Marketplace must integrate with the AWS Marketplace Metering Service and call the RegisterUsage operation for software entitlement and metering. Calling RegisterUsage from containers running outside of ECS is not currently supported. Free and BYOL products for ECS aren't required to call RegisterUsage, but you may choose to do so if you would like to receive usage data in your seller reports. The sections below explain the behavior of RegisterUsage. RegisterUsage performs two primary functions: metering and entitlement.

  • Entitlement : RegisterUsage allows you to verify that the customer running your paid software is subscribed to your product on AWS Marketplace, enabling you to guard against unauthorized use. Your container image that integrates with RegisterUsage is only required to guard against unauthorized use at container startup, as such a CustomerNotSubscribedException/PlatformNotSupportedException will only be thrown on the initial call to RegisterUsage. Subsequent calls from the same Amazon ECS task instance (e.g. task-id) will not throw a CustomerNotSubscribedException, even if the customer unsubscribes while the Amazon ECS task is still running.
  • Metering : RegisterUsage meters software use per ECS task, per hour, with usage prorated to the second. A minimum of 1 minute of usage applies to tasks that are short lived. For example, if a customer has a 10 node ECS cluster and creates an ECS service configured as a Daemon Set, then ECS will launch a task on all 10 cluster nodes and the customer will be charged: (10 * hourly_rate). Metering for software use is automatically handled by the AWS Marketplace Metering Control Plane -- your software is not required to perform any metering specific actions, other than call RegisterUsage once for metering of software use to commence. The AWS Marketplace Metering Control Plane will also continue to bill customers for running ECS tasks, regardless of the customers subscription state, removing the need for your software to perform entitlement checks at runtime.

resolve_customer(**kwargs)

ResolveCustomer is called by a SaaS application during the registration process. When a buyer visits your website during the registration process, the buyer submits a registration token through their browser. The registration token is resolved through this API to obtain a CustomerIdentifier and product code.

See also: AWS API Documentation

Request Syntax

response = client.resolve_customer(
    RegistrationToken='string'
)
Parameters
RegistrationToken (string) --

[REQUIRED]

When a buyer visits your website during the registration process, the buyer submits a registration token through the browser. The registration token is resolved to obtain a CustomerIdentifier and product code.

Return type
dict
Returns
Response Syntax
{
    'CustomerIdentifier': 'string',
    'ProductCode': 'string'
}

Response Structure

  • (dict) --

    The result of the ResolveCustomer operation. Contains the CustomerIdentifier and product code.

    • CustomerIdentifier (string) --

      The CustomerIdentifier is used to identify an individual customer in your application. Calls to BatchMeterUsage require CustomerIdentifiers for each UsageRecord.

    • ProductCode (string) --

      The product code is returned to confirm that the buyer is registering for your product. Subsequent BatchMeterUsage calls should be made using this product code.
