Vercel CLI adds Spend Management

, Bryan Mishkin

You can now view and manage your team's Spend Management budget from the Vercel CLI. Run vercel budgets and you, or the scripts and agents you run, get back your current spend and the active budget.

terminal
$ vercel budgets
> No budget set on team my-team. Current spend is $63.33. Create one with `vercel --scope my-team budgets set --amount <dollars>`.


$ vercel budgets set --amount 200 --pause
> Pause all projects on team my-team at 100% ($200). Production deployments become unavailable.
> Success! Budget updated on team my-team.

  team       $200    $63.33     32%    active    yes      —


$ vercel budgets
  scope    amount    spent     used    status    pause    webhook
  team       $200    $63.33     32%    active    yes      —


$ vercel budgets remove --yes
> Success! Removed the $200 budget on team my-team.

This is the same On-Demand Budget shown in your team's billing settings. Setting a budget does not stop usage on its own. The --pause flag pauses production deployments of all projects when spend reaches 100%.

You can now see your budget alert history. Run vercel budgets alerts for the full log, filtered with --since, --until, --limit, and --json. A bare vercel budgets prints the three most recent alerts.

terminal
$ vercel budgets alerts
