On this page, you will see total credits consumed. This is the primary place to confirm whether you are approaching your plan limits.
Understanding the dashboard widget in make.com

How the make.com dashboard usage widget works

Viewing per-endpoint statistics in make.com

Why endpoint-level tracking in make.com matters

How to see scenario credit usage
