View Usage-based Plan information

• On the Billing page, view your billing information, including:
  • Account balance
  • Last billing update (updated hourly)
  • Past invoices
  • Payment method
  • Contact information
  • Notification settings

View Free Plan information

• On the Billing page, view the total limits available for the Free Plan.

Exceeded rate limits

If you exceed your plan's rate limits, {{< cloud-name >}} provides a notification in the {{< cloud-name "short" >}} user interface (UI) and adds a rate limit event to your Usage page for review.

All rate-limited requests are rejected; including both read and write requests. Rate-limited requests are not queued.

To remove rate limits, upgrade to a Usage-based Plan.

Rate-limited HTTP response code

When a request exceeds your plan's rate limit, the InfluxDB API returns the following response:

HTTP 429 “Too Many Requests”
Retry-After: xxx (seconds to wait before retrying the request)

Billing cycle

Billing occurs on the first day of the month for the previous month. For example, if you start the Usage-based Plan on September 15, you're billed on October 1 for your usage from September 15-30.
