The Subscription Usage page in the Site Factory Management Console displays how many websites and site collections in your Site Factory subscription already have custom domain names assigned to them. If your Site Factory subscription has a limited number of websites, this page displays:

*   The number of websites with custom domains on your `live` and `update` environments. These are the websites that count against your subscription’s maximum number of websites limit. 

*   Note
    
    A Site Factory stack has two environments: `live` and `update`. The `update` environment ensures that sites do not go down during code deployment.
    
    *   The number of [Dynamic Requests](#acsf-view-dynamic-requests) served by each Site Factory Stack per month.
    
    To view the Subscription Usage page:
    
    1.  Sign in to the Site Factory Management Console using an account with the [platform admin](/site-factory/manage/users/admin/platform-admin) role.
    2.  In the admin menu, click **Administration**.
    3.  In the **Site Factory Management** section, click the **Subscription Usage** link.

    Viewing Dynamic Requests
    ------------------------
    
    The Dynamic requests section on the Subscription Usage page displays the number of Dynamic Requests served by each Site Factory Stack during each month. Dynamic Request data is available with up to a two-day delay. Dynamic Requests include all requests on a production environment irrespective of whether the traffic goes to a `live` or `update` environment.
    
    [Dynamic Requests](#acsf-view-dynamic-requests) was earlier referred to as Page Views. One Dynamic Request is equivalent to one Page View. Therefore, if an order form mentions Page Views, Acquia measures it by utilizing Dynamic Requests.
    
    For this purpose, Dynamic Requests include all requests served by Drupal, including:
    
    *   successful page loads
    *   redirections
    *   image derivative generations
    *   page not founds
    *   failed page loads
    
    Dynamic Requests do not include:
    
    *   requests served from Varnish® cache or a CDN
    *   requests for images, files, and other assets which are served directly without additional processing (such as resizing)
    *   cron runs (although these will be included in the future)
    
    ### Downloading Dynamic Request reports
    
    ![site-factory_viewing-dynamic-requests.png](https://acquia.widen.net/content/638f5340-7e19-4d2f-9ded-cf9ccd3d1c47/web/site-factory_viewing-dynamic-requests.png?w=720&itok=q-P2SZBv)
    
    Click the **CSV** button to download Dynamic Request reports in CSV format. The downloaded report includes all of the time periods currently displayed on the **Subscription Usage** page. By default, the name of the downloaded file is `dynamic-requests.csv`.
    
    ### Using the REST API to obtain Dynamic Request reports
    
    The [Site Factory REST API](/site-factory/extend/api) includes a `Dynamic Requests` [method](https://docs.acquia.com/site-factory/site-factory-api#operation/get_PageView_getPageViewDataMonthly) (`GET /api/v1/dynamic-requests/monthly`) that you can use to obtain additional, detailed Dynamic Request reports.
