Monitor your Flowr usage for Power Automate

We offer a number of different subscription levels that govern the total credits available per month for the Encodian connector for Power Automate.

When there are no credits available under your subscription plan you will not be able to use the connector until you either upgrade your subscription plan, buy additional credits or wait until the next calendar month.

The error message; The total monthly operations limit permitted by your current subscription level has been exceeded

Albeit you can instantly upgrade your subscription and buy additional credits to resolve this issue should it occur, this doesn't mitigate the issue happening in the first instance. To mitigate the risk of Flow errors caused by exceeding usage limits we recommend creating a dedicated monitoring Flow which uses the Encodian Get Subscription Status action.

Note: No credits are consumed for using the Get Subscription Status action.

Create a Flow to monitor your Encodian Subscription Usage

1. Log in to Power Automate and create a new 'Scheduled Flow'

2. Configure the 'Scheduled Flow' pertaining to your requirements, we recommend checking at least once per day.



3. Add the Encodian 'Get Subscription Status - Flowr and Vertr' or 'Get Subscription Status - Trigr' action to your flow

4. Add a 'Condition' action to your flow:

4.a. Select the 'Available Actions' property and then configure the operator and threshold value pertaining to your requirements. For this example; I have set the operator to 'is less than' and the value to '100'



5. In the 'No' branch; add a 'Terminate' action.

5a. Status: Set the value to 'Succeeded'

6. In the 'Yes' branch; Add a 'Send an email' action and configure as needed to provide an automated notification.

The final flow configuration:

    This is brilliant, thank you!  I set ours up to calculate the % used (actions remaining vs. purchased) and compare that to the % of days left in the month.  I will get a notification if we are outpacing our plan and be able to act before running out completely.
