Quota of Azure Open AI (GPT) during free trial

Question

Hello.
I am in a 30 days free trial on Azure and testing services like the Azure Open AI service. For this one, I have just been able to post a couple of short requests before getting the below message in the sandbox, and get timeout in my power automate API calls. Now I need to wait for 24 hours before retrieve the capacity for probably the same very short number of calls.

Do you think this is because of the trial? I can go for the pay-as-yoy-go but would like to make sure in order not to lose my trial for other services.

Thank you !

Hi Gilles Leniau,

Greetings & Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A forum! Thank you for sharing your query.

I understand that you're encountering an issue with Quota and limits. During the Azure OpenAI free trial, your request quota is limited. If you are using the Azure for Students or Free Trials offer, the maximum quota is 1,000 tokens per minute for all models. This restriction may result in messages about exceeding the token rate limit, particularly with frequent or large requests.

The message you encountered indicates that you have surpassed the token rate limit for your current pricing tier, which is common during the trial period. Transitioning to a pay-as-you-go plan could provide higher quotas and more flexibility for your usage without affecting your trial for other services.

Kindly refer these Quota and Limits
