Recurly's Salesforce integration adds a field in the Subscription table called Monthly Recurring Amount. Where in Recurly's API is this value exposed for accounts or account subscriptions?

The Monthly Recurring Amount can be pulled from the subscription details (https://docs.recurly.com/api/subscriptions#lookup-subscription). The SFDC integration is pulling the unit_amount_in_cents, which is the regular subscription amount (not including any taxes, credits, coupons, etc).
It's important to keep in mind that MRR will rarely, if ever, equal actual revenue. That's because as subscriptions renew things like taxes, credits, and coupons will impact the invoices that's generated. Furthermore, when the subscription renews there's a chance payment will be declined.
MRR is a great value for trends but won't match actual revenue values.

1Is this true even for subscriptions with a quantity greater than 1? – Zeimyth Apr 30 '15 at 20:59

The total_recurring_amount will take quantity into account. – Rachel Quick May 05 '15 at 16:48

I see that value in the documentation for Exports, but not in the link you provided in your answer. Is total_recurring_amount available through the API? – Zeimyth May 05 '15 at 16:55

It's not - that's a special field for the export, so best to use that there! – Rachel Quick May 06 '15 at 18:00
