Update: Free tier usage limits now effective 1 May 2020

[lisaguthrie]

When App Configuration reached GA, configuration stores created during the public preview period were automatically migrated to the Free tier. Stores in the Free tier are limited to 1,000 requests per day. We previously announced that we would enforce the daily request limit on stores created during the public preview period starting on 1 April 2020.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on development lifecycles, we will now wait until 1 May 2020 to enforce the daily request limit on stores created during the public preview period.

If you used App Configuration while it was in public preview, we recommend that you review the Total Request Count graph on the Overview page in the Azure portal to understand the number of daily requests made to each of your configuration stores. Consider upgrading to the Standard tier for any stores receiving more than 1,000 requests in a single day. You can upgrade from the "Scale up" tab in the portal.
