Get(LastStepTokensUsed)
Returns the tokens used in the last AI script step.
Format

Parameters
None
Data type returned
text
Originated in version
21.0
Description
This function returns a result for the last AI script step that ran in the current FileMaker client session. (AI script steps are those that specify an AI account name and model to use.) The result is a JSON object in this format:
{
"model": "<ModelName>",
"usage": {
"prompt_tokens": <number>,
"total_tokens": <number>
}
}
-
model
is the name of the model that was last used by an AI script step. -
usage.total_tokens
is the total number of tokens sent to the model by the last AI script step (for example, the Insert Embedding script step).
Depending on the model used, additional types of token counts may be reported that add up to usage.total_tokens
.
Notes
-
This function returns a result only when OpenAI models are used.
-
Use of the GetEmbedding function has no effect on this function's result.
Example 1
JSONGetElement ( Get ( LastStepTokensUsed ) ; "usage.total_tokens" )
returns 177 if calculated after an Insert Embedding script step sent 177 tokens to an OpenAI model.
Example 2
Gets embedding vectors for the Meeting::Note field for all records in the Meetings table, then gets the number of tokens used in that script step and adds it to the running total for the current session stored in the $$totalTokensUsed global variable.
