Get the traffic volume in megabytes for a specific Live Stream Acceleration domain or domains by acceleration region. Domain-id is a unique ID representing a domain. QUANTIL Support can provide you the IDs of your domains. Specify multiple domains by entering their IDs separated only by commas. The region can be 'cn' representing 'Mainland China', 'nc' representing 'Near China', 'euna' representing 'Europe and North America' , 'apac' representing 'Asia Pacific', 'am' representing North and South America, or 'emea' representing 'Europe, Middle East, and Africa'. You may specify more than one area by separating them with semicolons. In addition, request parameters allow you to specify a time period, an interval type, and timezone for the output.
