description: >-
  FOCUS-aligned FinOps placeholder for Ameriprise Financial. Ameriprise does
  not publish a developer API or metered billing surface, so there are no API
  meters, charge categories, or invoice issuer columns to reconcile. This
  document keeps the FinOps shape so downstream tooling can iterate. The single
  synthetic `api_requests` meter written by the 2026-05-04 bulk sweep has been
  removed (re-checked 2026-09-02): it was self-labelled a placeholder and
  asserted a metered surface Ameriprise does not operate.
notes: >-
  No public API billing surface. Replace meters with provider-issued line items
  if Ameriprise launches a developer program.

    description: >-
      No Ameriprise-issued usage telemetry exists for developers. If integrating
      via Plaid or similar aggregators, rely on the aggregator's usage dashboard.
  - name: Allocation
    description: >-
      Allocate any third-party aggregator costs to the consuming team or
      product, since Ameriprise itself does not invoice for API consumption.
  - name: Optimization
    description: >-
      The primary cost lever is aggregator selection and per-item pricing
      (Plaid, MX, Finicity), not Ameriprise tariffs.

    description: >-
      Budget ownership sits with whichever team contracts the aggregator that
      provides Ameriprise account connectivity.
