Triggers

Searches

Searches
- Find User Requests - Find many requests from Helicone filtered by user ID.

Actions

Actions
- API Request (Beta) - This is an advanced action which makes a raw HTTP request that includes this integration's authentication.

Request limits are based on Helicone plans. Free Hobby plan is limited to 10,000 requests per month, with usage-based pricing applying for additional requests on paid plans.
EU customers must use keys with "eu-" prefix for proper regional routing, which could complicate multi-region deployments.
Rate limits are bounded by the underlying LLM provider's policies, meaning Helicone cannot exceed the limits set by services like OpenAI or Anthropic.
