For example, making a “IMPORT” API (Import APPEND Type) call to import 10,000 rows the units consumed will be: (10,000/1,000) * 10 units = 100 units consumed.

Note: When the total API Units consumed per day exceeds the allowed units for the purchased plan, Zoho Analytics will send the error response with code 6043 (or) 6044.
