API calls per connection

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Lewkir

Can someone help me undstand throttling limits please?

 

The Mail connector documentation here:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-gb/connectors/sendmail/#limits

 

states that you have 100 API calls per connection in 24 hours.

 

does that mean we can only send 100 emails with it per 24 hours?

 

or is it just for that particular flow/that particular run of that flow?

    Hello,

     

    You are correct the Mail connector gives 100 api calls per 24 hours.  This connector is very restrictive and is very sensitive to throttling.  The recommended approach is to use the Office 365 Outlook connector which gives 300 API calls with a renewal period of 60 seconds.  See the documentation below.  If this reply has helped in answering your question please mark it as the suggested answer.
