The query returns the following results.

+----------------+----------------------------+------------------------------+--------------+----------------+
|    CLIENT_NAME |    SNOWFLAKE_PROVIDED_ID   |              EVENT_TIMESTAMP |   EVENT_TYPE | BLOB_SIZE_BYTES|
|----------------+--------------------------- +------------------------------+--------------|----------------|
|      MY_CLIENT |FE0B1xJrBAAL3bAAUz1M9876nMCd| 2023-02-04 02:07:34.000 +0000| BLOB_PERSIST |           1,648|

Query the hourly credits consumed by each client loading data into Snowflake tables using Snowpipe Streaming within the last 365 days.

SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT event_timestamp) AS client_seconds, date_trunc('hour',event_timestamp) AS event_hour, client_seconds*0.000002777777778 as credits, client_name, snowflake_provided_id
FROM SNOWFLAKE.ACCOUNT_USAGE.SNOWPIPE_STREAMING_CLIENT_HISTORY
GROUP BY event_hour, client_name, snowflake_provided_id;
Copy

Note that there can be multiple events per second. The credits are consumed only by the actual time spent, and not by the number of events.
