Statistics API

Hi @jonesuk,

It doesn’t really work this way. I could easily write you some code that would allow the user to see how much they have spent, but is it really this amount you want to show?

Hi @tigroumeow

Great plugin by the way. What what you suggest is the best way for users to know how much they have spent or how many messages they have sent so that they can know their usage say users get 10,000 messages how can I show the user they have already sent 9000 messages and not just have an error message pop up that is unexpected that they have already used all their messages?

Actually, it really depends on what you want to show them ?? Are you providing a free service? Or you want them to pay for it?

I guess you would also like to lock their ability to use it if they “consume” too much; but based on what? It could the the number of tokens, or the actual amount of money you spent for them (but I think it’s private to you, so you shouldn’t show that, it could be a % of the amount you want to allow each user to use for a month for example).

hi @tigroumeow

i have implemented the restrictions based on money spent in the stars API but if I want to show the user is a certain percentage of their max cost spent say $10 can can this be done in either the chat itself or as a short code so for example a message in a short code could say you have used 20% of your allocated allowance. This message could be based on being able to set a query like display percentage of amount used and you can set the amount to say $10 or $20 dollars per month and then do % of this cut off amount. As I want to restrict usage each month so that people don’t miss use it. How can this be achieved?

Hi,

Contact me directly @jonesuk we’ll find a nice way to add this ??
