Power Automate Licenses

Posted on by MD-05031545-0 16
Hello,
 
I am new to Power Automate and had a couple questions about licensing and limitations.
 
I am building a process for my work through my work account. It looks like we have the free license, which from my research is limited to 6,000 API calls in a rolling 24hr period. Is that API call limit per user with the free license? If I need to, am I able to be upgraded to a premium license if I need more API calls?

    Hi,
     
    My recommendation is to move to the premium license; very affordable and you can do a ton.  Here's the link to the licensing guide and capacity limits.
     
     
    Premium pushes you to 40K/24 hour and is recommended.  I've had 0 issues so far and running on a handful of VMs.
