public sealed class QuotaLimit : IMessage<QuotaLimit>, IEquatable<QuotaLimit>, IDeepCloneable<QuotaLimit>, IBufferMessage, IMessage
QuotaLimit defines a specific limit that applies over a specified duration
for a limit type. There can be at most one limit for a duration and limit
type combination defined within a QuotaGroup.
Default number of tokens that can be consumed during the specified
duration. This is the number of tokens assigned when a client
application developer activates the service for his/her project.
Specifying a value of 0 will block all requests. This can be used if you
are provisioning quota to selected consumers and blocking others.
Similarly, a value of -1 will indicate an unlimited quota. No other
negative values are allowed.
Optional. User-visible, extended description for this quota limit.
Should be used only when more context is needed to understand this limit
than provided by the limit's display name (see: display_name).
User-visible display name for this limit.
Optional. If not set, the UI will provide a default display name based on
the quota configuration. This field can be used to override the default
display name generated from the configuration.
Free tier value displayed in the Developers Console for this limit.
The free tier is the number of tokens that will be subtracted from the
billed amount when billing is enabled.
This field can only be set on a limit with duration "1d", in a billable
group; it is invalid on any other limit. If this field is not set, it
defaults to 0, indicating that there is no free tier for this service.
Maximum number of tokens that can be consumed during the specified
duration. Client application developers can override the default limit up
to this maximum. If specified, this value cannot be set to a value less
than the default limit. If not specified, it is set to the default limit.
To allow clients to apply overrides with no upper bound, set this to -1,
indicating unlimited maximum quota.
The name of the metric this quota limit applies to. The quota limits with
the same metric will be checked together during runtime. The metric must be
defined within the service config.
Specify the unit of the quota limit. It uses the same syntax as
[MetricDescriptor.unit][google.api.MetricDescriptor.unit]. The supported
unit kinds are determined by the quota backend system.
Here are some examples:
"1/min/{project}" for quota per minute per project.
Note: the order of unit components is insignificant.
The "1" at the beginning is required to follow the metric unit syntax.
Tiered limit values. You must specify this as a key:value pair, with an
integer value that is the maximum number of requests allowed for the
specified unit. Currently only STANDARD is supported.
