Edge Requests are now called CDN Requests

By Steven Van ·

Pricing and measurement are unchanged, but billing API integrations matching on ServiceName should move to the new SkuId field.

Vercel's usage metric previously called Edge Requests is now called CDN Requests. It is a naming change only: pricing, limits and how usage is measured are all unchanged. The name reflects that these are requests served by Vercel's CDN.

The new name appears on the usage dashboard, the Observability Events chart, usage notifications and invoice line items. Metric IDs and product aliases are unchanged, so saved queries keep working.

One change affects code. In the billing charges API, ServiceName now returns the new name. Integrations that match charges on ServiceName should switch to the new SkuId field, which stays stable across renames.
