Databar uses two units of measurement for usage: credits and actions. Understanding the difference helps you predict costs and choose the right approach for each workflow.

Credits

Credits are consumed when you use data providers through Databar’s API Network — the keyless access mode where Databar manages the provider connection on your behalf.

How credit costs work

Each provider has its own credit cost per request. Some providers charge a flat rate per row, while others charge based on the volume of data returned. For example, a Google Maps enrichment might charge per location found rather than per request.
The total cost of an enrichment run is: base cost per row x number of rows enriched. Before running, the enrichment sidebar shows an expected total price so you can confirm before committing.

When credits are used

  • Running enrichments that use API Network providers (no API key required from you)
  • Each provider lists its credit cost in the enrichment configuration panel

When credits are NOT used

  • Running enrichments with your own API key via connectors
  • Using OAuth connectors (HubSpot, Salesforce, etc.)
  • Applying formulas, JSON expander, merge columns, or other transformations

Actions

Actions are consumed for operations that do not use Databar’s API Network credits:
  • Requests through OAuth connectors (e.g., HubSpot, Salesforce)
  • Requests to free APIs or APIs where you provide your own key
  • Requests to custom-added endpoints
Formulas, JSON expander, merge columns, deduplication, and similar in-table transformations do not consume actions. These are free to use regardless of your plan.

Purchasing additional credits

If you run out of credits mid-cycle, you can purchase add-on credit packs from your workspace settings.
Credit add-ons require an active subscription and expire 3 months after purchase. They do not roll over indefinitely.

Plans and pricing

Databar offers multiple pricing tiers. All plans include keyless API access through the API Network — the difference is in the number of credits, actions, and features included. For current pricing details, visit databar.ai/pricing.

Low credit alerts

You can configure an email alert that fires when your workspace credit balance drops below a threshold you define.
1

Open workspace settings

Navigate to your workspace settings page.
2

Set the threshold

Enter the credit balance at which you want to be notified.
3

Save

The alert is now active. The workspace owner will receive an email when the balance drops below the configured threshold.
Low credit alerts are off by default. Only the workspace owner receives the notification email.

Pricing previews

Before running any enrichment, the sidebar displays an estimated total cost based on the number of rows selected and the provider’s per-row rate. This helps you avoid unexpected charges on large datasets.
