Azure App Configuration Free Tier Hourly Quota

Question

Hi
I'm using Azure App Configuration Free Tier and my requests are throttled long before I ever even approach 1000 requests per day. Can't figure out what is the reason for it?

Also, I can't make any sense of the number of requests. This is my code in c#

so per service using it I anticipate 24ish requests per day, but numbers seem to be much higher.

Hello , Welcome to MS Q&A

The number of requests in Azure App Configuration Free Tier may be higher than anticipated due to the limit of 1,000 requests per day. Once the store reaches this limit, it will return HTTP status code 429 for all requests until midnight UTC. Additionally, the Free tier does not have guaranteed throughput, which means that requests exceeding the throughput allowance will receive an HTTP status code 429 response.

To avoid exceeding the request quota, it is recommended to design your application with a sufficient buffer against the hourly throttling limit and to consider upgrading to a higher tier if necessary.

For more detailed information, you can refer to the following resources:

• Azure App Configuration FAQ - Which App Configuration tier should I use?
