The monthly budget limits the total amount due on your invoice across all signal types — spans, logs, metric data points, web events, and synthetic API checks.
Key features
- Advance warnings - Dash0 notifies you at 75% and 90% of your budget via in-app banners and emails to organization admins.
- 4-day grace period - When your budget is reached, telemetry continues to be ingested for 4 days at no additional charge, giving you time to react.
- No data loss - After the grace period, ingestion is paused automatically. Historical data and configuration remain fully accessible.
- Full flexibility - Modify or remove your budget at any time from Settings > Billing & Plans.
Prerequisites
You must have the Admin role in your organization. Members without the Admin role cannot view or modify the monthly budget.
To set a monthly budget, navigate to Settings > Billing & Plans and click Set monthly budget in the Next invoice card.
You can find more details in the monthly budget documentation.
