Started Consuming AI credits without configuring anything

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 2

Hello, i was wondering if anyone would be able to help with the below.

 

I recently purchased a power automate premium license as i needed it to use a power automate addon that wasn't included in the basic plan, however once purchasing i was then assigned 5000 builder ai credits, which i understand and is fine. However since having AI builder credits 600- 800 seems to be consumed on a daily basis. After looking at the connections it seems to be the following that is consuming credits:

 

connection type - Office365Adoption AAD

 

 

It seems to run once daily, but this isn't something i'v configured and don't understand how it can just start consuming credits, i only noticed because i had an email saying "Warning: Microsoft AI Builder capacity is low" I had never heard of builder AI before receiving this email either.

 

I did initially think it was azure connect syncing our on-prem AD over to azure, but this syncs every hour so cancelled that out, it just seems odd since this isn't something i'v ever configured.

 

if anyone would be able to shed any light on the matter that would be much appreciated.

 

cheers

    Hi,

    If you're not in a GCC/sovereign cloud, you can also check out the 

    https://make.powerautomate.com/environments/<EnvironmentId>/monitor/activity/aibuilder/aimodels page of your environment - this will give you the name of the model and of users using credits in an environment (unless it's object detection model training). 

     

    Hope that helps - if not, please do send us the details at the address given above by Antoine.

     

    Thanks,
    JK

    To stop the bleeding, I recommend you assign your credits to the environment where you need AI Builder features. That way, other environments won't be able to access them.

    AI Builder licensing and credit management | Microsoft Learn

     

    Once done, you can block the use of unassigned credits : AI Builder licensing and credit management | Microsoft Learn to prevent any additional entitlement to be used by this environment.

     

    Now, we can investigate what is effectively the source of AI credits consumption, and how it's related to SCCM. To do so, please share your tenantId, by sending an email to aihelpen@microsoft.com

    Hey Antoine,

     

    much appreciated, thanks for that. But it looks like the environment id matches that of the connector office365adoption AAD so it does seem to be the case that that's consuming credits. So after downloading the report and copying the environment id into azure enterprise applications its seems to correspond to an api for SCCM. That being said i'm not sure how this has started to link to power platform.

     

    It looks like the enterprise application was created back in February but AI credits started being used in september.

    Hello,

     

    There must be some user in your environment consuming AIB credits, within a flow, an app, or using quick tests.

    Office365Adoption AAD should not consume any AIB credits.

     

    You can create a consumption report : AI Builder consumption report - AI Builder | Microsoft Learn

    It would give you the date, the user and the environment consuming the credits. It can be another user in the same environment or in another environment if the credits are unassigned.

    If you still need help, please share your report with us at this email address: aihelpen@microsoft.com
