General billing information

What is a monthly active user?

Monthly active users (MAU) is the number of users that connect to Liveblocks in a given month.

Users are identified by the userId property provided in your authentication endpoint.

This userId generally comes from your database or your authentification provider. One unique userId corresponds to one user, whether they connected to a room 1 day for 5 minutes or kept coming back every day for 8 hours.

One user will be counted as one monthly active user, no matter how frequently they connect to Liveblocks rooms in any given month as long as it falls under our Fair Use Policy.

Do you count monthly active users during testing?

If you connect to rooms and call the Liveblocks API during any automated testing, you may want to provide a static userId to avoid hitting limits.

For example, you could do this by setting an environment variable and checking the process when you call authorize from @liveblocks/node.

TEST_USERID="machine"

export default async function auth(req, res) {  const room = req.body.room;  const response = await authorize({    room,    secret,    userId:      process.env.NODE_ENV === "test" ? process.env.TEST_USERID : "user123",  });  return res.status(response.status).end(response.body);}
