Quotas and limits

Charged quota

Recommender API pricing controls how much read and write quota is provided to individual resources. To support different pricing options, the read and write quota is broken down per recommender.

Depending on the resource from which the call is made, the following quotas apply:

Resource Charged quota
Project Resource project's organization
Organization Resource organization
Folder Resource organization
Billing Account Client project's organization

API request quota types

Calls to the Recommender API are charged according to the following quota types:

When the Recommender API is called, you are eligible for the following quotas:

  • Free tier quota if you have not purchased a support package, or have only a basic role-based support.
  • Full quota if you have purchased a support package other than a basic role-based support.

Quota level Reads per minute Reads per day Writes per minute Writes per day
