A low-level client representing AWSMarketplace Metering:
client = session.create_client('meteringmarketplace')
These are the available methods:
BatchMeterUsage is called from a SaaS application listed on the AWS Marketplace to post metering records for a set of customers.
For identical requests, the API is idempotent; requests can be retried with the same records or a subset of the input records.
Every request to BatchMeterUsage is for one product. If you need to meter usage for multiple products, you must make multiple calls to BatchMeterUsage.
BatchMeterUsage can process up to 25 UsageRecords at a time.

Request Syntax
response = client.batch_meter_usage(
UsageRecords=[
{
'Timestamp': datetime(2015, 1, 1),
'CustomerIdentifier': 'string',
'Dimension': 'string',
'Quantity': 123
},
],
ProductCode='string'
)
[REQUIRED]
The set of UsageRecords to submit. BatchMeterUsage accepts up to 25 UsageRecords at a time.
A UsageRecord indicates a quantity of usage for a given product, customer, dimension and time.
Multiple requests with the same UsageRecords as input will be deduplicated to prevent double charges.
Timestamp, in UTC, for which the usage is being reported.
Your application can meter usage for up to one hour in the past. Make sure the timestamp value is not before the start of the software usage.
The CustomerIdentifier is obtained through the ResolveCustomer operation and represents an individual buyer in your application.
During the process of registering a product on AWS Marketplace, up to eight dimensions are specified. These represent different units of value in your application.
The quantity of usage consumed by the customer for the given dimension and time. Defaults to 0 if not specified.
[REQUIRED]
Product code is used to uniquely identify a product in AWS Marketplace. The product code should be the same as the one used during the publishing of a new product.

Exceptions
Paid container software products sold through AWS Marketplace must integrate with the AWS Marketplace Metering Service and call the RegisterUsage operation for software entitlement and metering. Free and BYOL products for Amazon ECS or Amazon EKS aren't required to call RegisterUsage, but you may choose to do so if you would like to receive usage data in your seller reports. The sections below explain the behavior of RegisterUsage. RegisterUsage performs two primary functions: metering and entitlement.

Exceptions
ResolveCustomer is called by a SaaS application during the registration process. When a buyer visits your website during the registration process, the buyer submits a registration token through their browser. The registration token is resolved through this API to obtain a CustomerIdentifier and product code.
See also: AWS API Documentation
Request Syntax
response = client.resolve_customer(
RegistrationToken='string'
)
[REQUIRED]
When a buyer visits your website during the registration process, the buyer submits a registration token through the browser. The registration token is resolved to obtain a CustomerIdentifier and product code.
{
'CustomerIdentifier': 'string',
'ProductCode': 'string'
}
Response Structure
The result of the ResolveCustomer operation. Contains the CustomerIdentifier and product code.
The CustomerIdentifier is used to identify an individual customer in your application. Calls to BatchMeterUsage require CustomerIdentifiers for each UsageRecord.
The product code is returned to confirm that the buyer is registering for your product. Subsequent BatchMeterUsage calls should be made using this product code.
Exceptions
Client exceptions are available on a client instance via the exceptions property. For more detailed instructions and examples on the exact usage of client exceptions, see the error handling user guide.

The submitted registration token has expired. This can happen if the buyer's browser takes too long to redirect to your page, the buyer has resubmitted the registration token, or your application has held on to the registration token for too long. Your SaaS registration website should redeem this token as soon as it is submitted by the buyer's browser.
