Billing for external AWS account identity

0

I am making CloudWatchAPI calls (e.g. GetMetricData) using client identity from account A to pull metric data from another account B (stores and generates the metric).

Which account is billed for that: the account A (that owns the client identity) or the account B (where the metric resides)?

Is there a documentation that would cover? Is there a documentation for other AWS services?

Where are you storing the data? If you are going to write it to CloudWatch in the target account, then as the charge is for PutMetricData I would expect account A from your description.
