Results are sorted by `name`, then `id`. There is no pagination. ##### Security
API Token The preferred authorization scheme for interacting with the Cloudflare API. Create a token. **Example:**Authorization: Bearer Sn3lZJTBX6kkg7OdcBUAxOO963GEIyGQqnFTOFYY
API Email + API Key The previous authorization scheme for interacting with the Cloudflare API, used in conjunction with a Global API key. **Example:**X-Auth-Email: user@example.com The previous authorization scheme for interacting with the Cloudflare API. When possible, use API tokens instead of Global API keys. **Example:**X-Auth-Key: 144c9defac04969c7bfad8efaa8ea194

errors: array of object {message, code } Always empty on success. message: string Describes the error or notice. Link to this property code: optional number Identifies the error or notice type. Link to this property

messages: array of object {message, code } Contains informational notices about the response. message: string Describes the error or notice. Link to this property code: optional number Identifies the error or notice type. Link to this property

result: array of object {id, account\_id, action, 7 more } The account’s spend policies. An empty array when there are none. id: string The unique identifier of the spend policy. formatuuid Link to this property account\_id: number Internal numeric ID of the account that owns the policy. This is not the account tag used in the path. formatint64 Link to this property
action: "notification"or "usage\_block" The action taken when the threshold is reached. notification sends an email to notification_email. usage_block blocks further usage of the product until the end of the billing period. Raising the threshold above the current balance, disabling the policy, or deleting it lifts the block early. One of the following: "notification" Link to this property "usage\_block" Link to this property
Link to this property enabled: boolean Whether the policy is evaluated. Link to this property name: string Display name of the policy. Link to this property notification\_email: string Email address that receives notifications. An empty string when none is set. Link to this property
product\_id: "workers"or "durable\_objects" The product the policy applies to: workers or durable_objects. Each product’s balance and policies are separate. Both products support notification and usage_block policies on create and update. One of the following: "workers" Link to this property "durable\_objects" Link to this property
Link to this property threshold\_cents: number The spend threshold for the current billing period, in US cents. formatint64 Link to this property version: number Optimistic-concurrency version. It starts at 1 and goes up by one on every update or delete. This value is also returned in ETag. formatint64 minimum1 Link to this property
current\_state: optional object {balance\_cents, billing\_period\_end, billing\_period\_start, 3 more } Read-only state on list/get responses, evaluated from the latest owning projector snapshot at request time, independently of the API replica. Configuration enabled/version/ETag do not change when a cycle rolls over. Audit history remains unchanged. Missing during a rolling upgrade or on mutation responses; clients must treat missing state as unavailable. Balances are asynchronous estimates, not a synchronous usage read. balance\_cents: number formatint64 Link to this property billing\_period\_end: string formatdate-time Link to this property billing\_period\_start: string formatdate-time Link to this property
enforcement: object {applied\_generation, delivery\_status, desired\_generation, 2 more } Durable desired cap and delivery bookkeeping for this policy, or null if no owned effect exists. Separate from threshold evaluation: pending/leased/retry can lag the new billing period. Succeeded with equal generations means delivery completed, not an EWC readback. applied\_generation: number formatint64 Link to this property
delivery\_status: "pending"or "leased"or "retry"or "succeeded" One of the following: "pending" Link to this property "leased" Link to this property "retry" Link to this property "succeeded" Link to this property
Link to this property desired\_generation: number formatint64 Link to this property
desired\_state: "active"or "inactive" One of the following: "active" Link to this property "inactive" Link to this property
Link to this property expires\_at: string formatdate-time Link to this property
Link to this property evaluated\_at: string Evaluation time; not the timestamp of the latest usage event. formatdate-time Link to this property
status: "disabled"or "no\_current\_period"or "unavailable"or 2 more Threshold evaluation, not proof of an edge cap. No current active period yields no\_current\_period for enabled policies; failed aggregate reads yield unavailable for enabled policies. Disabled policies report disabled. Neither no\_current\_period nor unavailable implies a zero balance or below-limit state. Operators may disable current-state reads, in which case current\_state is omitted. One of the following: "disabled" Link to this property "no\_current\_period" Link to this property "unavailable" Link to this property "below\_limit" Link to this property "limit\_reached" Link to this property
