How to get how much requests units consumed by cosmos query in Python SDK API

Question

How to check how many Request units consumed for each requests in Azure comsos DB query using python sdk.

Below code only prints output of the response from particular ReadItem, I also interested in how many request units consumed by query.

import azure.cosmos.cosmos_client as cosmos_client
import azure.cosmos.exceptions as exceptions
from azure.cosmos.partition_key import PartitionKey

from config import configs

HOST = configs['host']
MASTER_KEY = configs['key']
DATABASE_ID = configs['database_id']
CONTAINER_ID = configs['container_id']
client = cosmos_client.CosmosClient(HOST, {'masterKey': MASTER_KEY} )

def read_item(container, doc_id):
    id =  "9fedcb0991553b94b6e79595c9c26922b3c480940fc024fe4acd7dbad122d66b"
    pk= "/c/file1"
    response = container.read_item(item=id, partition_key=pk)
    print(response)


def run_sample():
    
    
    try:
        # setup database for this sample
        db = client.create_database_if_not_exists(id=DATABASE_ID)
        
        # setup container for this sample
        container = db.create_container_if_not_exists(id=CONTAINER_ID, partition_key=PartitionKey(path='/file_path', kind='Hash'))
        read_item(container)

    except exceptions.CosmosHttpResponseError as e:
        print('\nrun_sample has caught an error. {0}'.format(e.message))

    finally:
            print("\nrun_sample done")


if __name__ == '__main__':
    run_sample()

I tried below options

 request_charge = client.last_response_headers['x-ms-request-charge']

But I am getting below error

run_sample done

Answer 1

You need to access container.client_connection not the client,

request_charge = container.client_connection.last_response_headers['x-ms-request-charge']
