# Effective

## List Effective Spend Limits

`beta.organization.spend_limits.effective.list(**kwargs)  -> SyncPageCursor[BetaSpendSummary]`

**GET** `/v1/organizations/spend_limits/effective`

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.

### Parameters

- `limit: Optional[int]` (query parameter)

  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`.

  default: 20, minimum: 1, maximum: 1000

- `page: Optional[str]` (query parameter)

  Opaque cursor from a previous response's `next_page` field.

- `period: Optional[List[Literal["daily", "monthly", "weekly"]]]` (query parameter)

  Restrict the report to these limit periods. Omit to return one row per period each member resolves a spend limit for.

  maxItems: 3

  - `"daily"`

  - `"monthly"`

  - `"weekly"`

- `user_ids: Optional[Sequence[str]]` (query parameter)

  Restrict the report to these members, by tagged user ID (`user_...`). At most 100 entries.

  maxItems: 100

### Returns

- `class BetaSpendSummary`

  Per-member effective-limit report row (`GET /spend_limits/effective`).

  - `actor: Actor`

    - `class BetaSpendLimitUserActor`

      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.

      - `type: Literal["user_actor"]`

        Actor type. Always `user_actor`.

        default: user_actor

      - `deleted: bool`

        True only when the underlying account has been deleted.

        default: false

      - `email_address: Optional[str]`

        The user's email address. Null when the account is unavailable or has been deleted.

      - `name: Optional[str]`

        The user's current display name. Null when the account is unavailable, has been deleted, or has no name set.

      - `user_id: str`

        Tagged ID of the user.

    - `class BetaSpendLimitScopedAPIKeyActor`

      A scoped Admin API key acting on behalf of the organization.

      - `type: Literal["scoped_api_key_actor"]`

        default: scoped_api_key_actor

      - `scoped_api_key_id: str`

  - `amount: Optional[str]`

    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: str`

    ISO 4217 code of the organization's billing currency; the unit for `amount` and `period_to_date_spend`.

  - `period: BetaSpendLimitPeriod`

    Period this row's effective limit and spend are reported for.

    - `"daily"`

    - `"monthly"`

    - `"weekly"`

  - `period_to_date_spend: str`

    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: Scope`

    - `class BetaSpendLimitUserScope`

      Scope selecting a single member of the organization.

      - `type: Literal["user"]`

        Scope type. Always `user` for this scope.

        default: user

      - `user_id: str`

        Tagged ID of the member the spend limit applies to.

    - `class BetaSpendLimitSeatTierScope`

      - `type: Literal["seat_tier"]`

        default: seat_tier

      - `seat_tier: str`

    - `class BetaSpendLimitRBACGroupScope`

      - `type: Literal["rbac_group"]`

        default: rbac_group

      - `rbac_group_id: str`

    - `class BetaSpendLimitOrganizationServiceScope`

      - `type: Literal["organization_service"]`

        default: organization_service

      - `service: str`

      - `workspace_id: str`

        Tagged ID of the workspace the spend limit applies to.

  - `source: Source`
