Hi Azure community,

I am interested in the pricing of idle usage in the Container Apps resource. I am using Container Apps jobs in our organization. The documentation about idle usage pricing (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/container-apps/billing#minimum-number-of-replicas-are-running) is talking about Container Apps revisions and replica's, which makes me asume that idle usage pricing can't be applied to Container App jobs. Is there someone who can confirm this?

Thank you in advance.

Edit: seems like docs were updated since I last checked. Question is answered.

    @Robin De Greve Thanks for reaching out. Container Apps jobs, resources consumed by each execution are billed at the active rate from start to completion. No usage charges apply when a job is not running executions. This suggests that idle usage pricing, which applies to Container Apps revisions and replicas, does not apply to Container App jobs.

    do let me know incase of further queries, I would be happy to assist you.

    Please accept as Yes if the answer provided is useful, so that you can help others in the community looking for remediation for similar issues.
