General billing information

What is a monthly active user?

Monthly active users (MAU) is the number of users that connect to Liveblocks in a given month.

Users are identified by the userId property provided in your authentication endpoint.

This userId generally comes from your database or your authentication provider. One unique userId corresponds to one user, whether they connected to a room 1 day for 5 minutes or kept coming back every day for 8 hours.

One user will be counted as one monthly active user, no matter how frequently they connect to Liveblocks rooms in any given month as long as it falls under our Fair Use Policy.

How is data storage calculated?

Storage for Text Editor and Sync Datastore is a cumulative calculation that represents all data that is currently stored. It does not reset monthly, and the total usage will continue to accrue over time as you add more content and data. You can monitor your usage at any time in the dashboard.

Do you count monthly active users during testing?

If you connect to rooms and call the Liveblocks API during any automated testing, you may want to provide a static userId to avoid hitting limits.

For example, you could do this by setting an environment variable and checking the process when you call authorize from @liveblocks/node.

TEST_USERID="machine"

export default async function auth(req, res) {  const room = req.body.room;  const response = await authorize({    room,    secret,    userId:      process.env.NODE_ENV === "test" ? process.env.TEST_USERID : "user123",  });  return res.status(response.status).end(response.body);}
