Resources
Where to find each LevelFour API method: one page per resource, with its parameters and the call in each SDK that carries it.
Each page below covers one resource: the methods that read or change it, the parameters they take, and the call in each SDK that carries it, with plain HTTP where an SDK does not.
The resources
| Resource | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Recommendations | Pending savings opportunities: idle resources, rightsizing, reserved instances |
| Savings | Realized savings from implemented recommendations |
| Costs | Current cloud costs with breakdowns by service, account, and time period |
| Providers | Provider-scoped reads for recommendations, savings and costs on AWS, GCP, Azure and Kubernetes |
| Cost Alerts | Alerts that watch an account, a saved cost view or your commitments: create, change, pause, delete, and what each one said |
| Commitments | Reserved Instances and Savings Plans: inventory, utilization, coverage, effective savings rate and renewal pricing |
| Google Cloud | Google Cloud reads beyond the bill: data availability, inventory, idle resources, labels, utilization, budgets and access |
| Accounts | Connected cloud accounts, what LevelFour can do in each, your modules, and connected work tools |
Recommendations and Savings are not two views of one number: one counts opportunity nobody has applied, the other counts what was applied and measured. A figure that adds both double counts.

- SDKs is the client these methods hang off: constructor options, minimum versions and the sub-client names
- Pagination has the envelope every list response carries, and the iterators that walk it for you
- Error handling has which status raises which class in each SDK, and what the SDKs retry before you see it
- Webhooks is registering an endpoint and verifying the signature before you act on the payload
- API reference is the generated REST reference for the endpoints behind every method here
