Power automate with O365 quota

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Hi Community,

 

I have been working to figure out if my organization can use power automate (flows) to automate the custom publishing process  with O365 enterprise licenses or not. I have gone through official docs and maximum 2000 API calls are allowed in O365 plan quota. The flow I am looking to create is bit complex. I have few questions on it and looking forward to seek help from you guys.

 

1. Would updating item of SharePoint list be counted as an API call ?

2. If some user exceeds 2000 API calls in a day so can that user use some other user's quota from the tenant pool ?

 

Answer to these two questions will be helpful for me in taking the right decision.

 

Thanks.

    Hi @Anonymous 

     

    1. Every action you add in a flow will be counted as an api call (even the compose action)

    2. Each user will have fixed quota and once reached, they will have to wait until the quota is reset. 

     

    You can check this post to how to better handle throttling and quota limits: https://www.bythedevs.com/post/working-with-throttling-limits-in-power-automate

     

    Hope this Helps!
