I can check with the team, but I believe server send events do not count as API requests

08/08/2023, 8:19 AMThank you. Are there any plans to eventually charge them though?
To my understanding, Fastly’s SSE usage is billed by no. of messages (low in GrowthBook’s case since feature definition change is at a relatively low cadence), and client connection minutes (this can blow up if tens of thousands of browsers are open at the same time). These will soon become expensive for your business.
So… Would the SSE portion eventually move to a pay-per-minute usage model? Or would it be counted in the existing API usage? As much as I like it, I don’t think SSE will remain free forever? 😄
