- **Quota**: Number of requests of this kind the user could make, eg. Number of street geocoding requests

You could use the following endpoint to know it: `https://<username>.cartodb.com/api/v1/users/<user_id>?api_key=<api_key>`
In the result of this endpoint you can see blocks with all the information. Eg:
