Credits
A search costs one credit, reserved when it starts and settled when it ends. You never pay for a search we interrupted.
| When | What happens to the credit |
|---|---|
POST accepted, 202 | Reserved |
done with credit_debited: true | Spent: at least one source answered |
done with credit_debited: false | Refunded: no source could answer |
| failed | Always refunded. The results already received stay readable, free of charge |
POST answered 200, search already running | None used |
POST refused, 4xx or 5xx | None used |
done and failed both carry credit_balance, your balance once the search is settled.
Starting an interrupted search again is a new search: a new POST, a new search_id and a new credit reserved.
