# Usage

This section contains the legacy API operations for Usage.

For the "Retrieve a usage record" operation, we recommend that you use the following Object Query operations instead:

- [List usage records](https://developer.zuora.com/v1-api-reference/api/operation/queryUsages/)
- [Retrieve a usage record](https://developer.zuora.com/v1-api-reference/api/operation/queryUsageByKey/)


## Retrieve a usage record

 - [GET /v1/usage/accounts/{account-key}](https://developer.zuora.com/v1-api-reference/older-api/usage/get_usage.md): Describes how to retrieve usage details for an account. Usage data is returned in reverse chronological order.
