# Function: createOpenMeterDestination()

> **createOpenMeterDestination**\<`TTags`>(`options`): `Destination`\<`TTags`>

Defined in: [openmeter-destination.ts:73](https://github.com/narevai/ai-billing/blob/main/packages/openmeter/src/destination/openmeter-destination.ts#L73)

Creates a Destination that ingests billing events into OpenMeter.

Identity is extracted from tags (CloudEvents `subject`). If no identity is present, the event is
skipped to avoid ingesting anonymous data.

**Cost:** Each event must include BillingEvent.cost. The payload always includes `cost_nanos`
and `currency` derived from `event.cost` using non-null assertion; omitting `cost` causes undefined
runtime behavior (typically a throw in costToNumber or when reading `currency`).

## Type Parameters

### TTags

`TTags` *extends* `JSONObject` = `JSONObject`

The shape of the tags object, extending DefaultTags.

## Parameters

### options

[`OpenMeterDestinationOptions`](/docs/sdk/ai-billing/reference/openmeter/typedoc/interfaces/OpenMeterDestinationOptions)\<`TTags`>

Destination configuration; see [OpenMeterDestinationOptions](/docs/sdk/ai-billing/reference/openmeter/typedoc/interfaces/OpenMeterDestinationOptions).

## Returns

`Destination`\<`TTags`>

A destination function that sends events to OpenMeter.
