Month in Review - November 2025

We are delighted with how attachmentAV is developing. New customers are signing up every day. Thank you so much for putting your trust in us. In the following, we would like to look back on the past month and also give you an outlook for the future.

API (SaaS): Fetch quota and credits

The API now allows developers to fetch information about the monthly quota and current credits.

The following snippet shows how to fetch quota and credits with curl.

curl \
  -X GET \
  -H 'x-api-key: xxx' \
  'https://eu.developer.attachmentav.com/v1/usage'

{"credits":981,"quota":{"limit":1000,"period":"MONTH"}}

The response status code is 200, and the body is JSON formatted with these properties:

• credits (number): The remaining amount of scans/requests for the period.
• quota (object):
  • limit (number): The maximum number of scans/requests within a period.
  • period (string): The billing period (e.g., MONTH).

Our SDKs support fetching quota and credits already, as illustrated in the following Java example.

import com.attachmentav.api.AttachmentAvApi;
import com.attachmentav.client.ApiClient;
import com.attachmentav.client.ApiException;
import com.attachmentav.client.Configuration;

// ...

ApiClient client = Configuration.getDefaultApiClient();
client.setApiKey("<API_KEY_PLACEHOLDER>");
AttachmentAvApi api = new AttachmentAvApi();
com.attachmentav.model.Usage result = api.usageGet();
System.out.println("Usage: " + result.toString());

Please refer to the API definition /v1/usage for more details and examples.

Update setup instructions for attachmentAV for Salesforce

As Salesforce made some changes for connected apps, we reworked the setup wizard of attachmentAV.

Step by step, we are simplifying the installation process.

Blog Posts

Besides that, we published two blog posts.
