Set usage quota by key

  • Стаття

APPLIES TO: Developer | Basic | Standard | Premium

The quota-by-key policy enforces a renewable or lifetime call volume and/or bandwidth quota, on a per key basis. The key can have an arbitrary string value and is typically provided using a policy expression. Optional increment condition can be added to specify which requests should be counted towards the quota. If multiple policies would increment the same key value, it is incremented only once per request. When the quota is exceeded, the caller receives a 403 Forbidden response status code, and the response includes a Retry-After header whose value is the recommended retry interval in seconds.

To understand the difference between rate limits and quotas, see Rate limits and quotas.

Note

When underlying compute resources restart in the service platform, API Management may continue to handle requests for a short period after a quota is reached.

Note

Set the policy's elements and child elements in the order provided in the policy statement. To help you configure this policy, the portal provides a guided, form-based editor. Learn more about how to set or edit API Management policies.

Policy statement

<quota-by-key calls="number"
              bandwidth="kilobytes"
              renewal-period="seconds"
              increment-condition="condition"
              increment-count="number"
              counter-key="key value"
              first-period-start="date-time" />

Attributes

Attribute Description Required Default
bandwidth The maximum total number of kilobytes allowed during the time interval specified in the renewal-period. Policy expressions aren't allowed. Either calls, bandwidth, or both together must be specified. N/A
calls The maximum total number of calls allowed during the time interval specified in the renewal-period. Policy expressions aren't allowed. Either calls, bandwidth, or both together must be specified. N/A
counter-key The key to use for the quota policy. For each key value, a single counter is used for all scopes at which the policy is configured. Policy expressions are allowed. Yes N/A
increment-condition The Boolean expression specifying if the request should be counted towards the quota (true). Policy expressions are allowed. No N/A
increment-count The number by which the counter is increased per request. Policy expressions are allowed. No 1
renewal-period The length in seconds of the fixed window after which the quota resets. The start of each period is calculated relative to first-period-start. Minimum period: 300 seconds. When renewal-period is set to 0, the period is set to infinite. Policy expressions aren't allowed. Yes N/A
first-period-start The starting date and time for quota renewal periods, in the following format: yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ssZ as specified by the ISO 8601 standard. Policy expressions aren't allowed. No 0001-01-01T00:00:00Z

Usage

Usage notes

The counter-key attribute value must be unique across all the APIs in the API Management instance if you don't want to share the total between the other APIs.

Example

<policies>
    <inbound>
        <base />
        <quota-by-key calls="10000" bandwidth="40000" renewal-period="3600"
                      increment-condition="@(context.Response.StatusCode >= 200 && context.Response.StatusCode < 400)"
                      counter-key="@(context.Request.IpAddress)" />
    </inbound>
    <outbound>
        <base />
    </outbound>
</policies>
