TL;DR

OFA Coins are the credit system for API access within the OneFirewall Alliance. Members need a sufficient Coin balance to make requests against OneFirewall’s APIs.

Overview

Coins are acquired by purchasing them from OneFirewall or by earning them through participation in the OneFirewall Alliance community.
Each user has a Coin balance tied to their member account.
Each API service has a fixed Coin cost. The system checks the user’s Coin balance before processing a request.
If the balance covers the request cost, the system deducts the corresponding amount of Coins.
If a user attempts to make a request but does not have enough Coins to cover the cost, the request is denied until they acquire more Coins.
Members can monitor their Coin balance and transaction history in the web console, under the user profile page.
Coin acquisition, pricing, and management details may change based on OneFirewall Alliance policy updates.

OFA Coins Acquisition

Coin allocation is determined by the license tier acquired by the user. Coins are provided upon acquiring a license and can be used to access the API Services. For Coin allocation details by license tier, contact the OneFirewall support team at [email protected].

API Services and Costs

Coin cost per API service varies based on data complexity and processing requirements.

Check the cost of each API call

Each API response includes a header, X-OFA-COST, containing the number of Coins debited for that request.
