Dashboard API Usage units kb or MB

[cmiarshvac]

I’m using the Meraki Dashboard API endpoint:

GET /organizations/{organizationId}/clients/overview

The response docs suggest the usage totals are in kb, but when I compare the API values to the Meraki daily summary email, the values appear to line up much more closely at a larger unit scale.

Example:
- API usage.total = 30959
- API usage.downstream = 22076
- API usage.upstream = 8882

Daily summary email for the same day shows:
- Total transferred = 30.47 GB
- Total downloaded = 21.54 GB
- Total uploaded = 8.93 GB

Has anyone confirmed the actual units returned by organization clients overview usage fields in practice?
Are these values really kb, MB, or some other normalized unit?

Although the official documentation mentions kb, I observed that the engineers state that the numbers correspond to MB when compared with the dashboard/summary reports.

It appears Meraki standardized some organization‑level usage metrics internally to MB but never updated the documentation for this endpoint.
