Quotas and limits

Error Reporting enforces API activity rate quotas, deployment tracking limits, and a 30-day data retention period to help manage resource usage in your Google Cloud project. Quotas have default values that you can request to adjust, whereas system limits are fixed values that can't be changed. For general information about how quotas work in Google Cloud, see the Cloud Quotas overview.

API activity limits

Quota name Limit
Error event data requests per minute per user 60
Error group metadata requests per minute per user 60
Error reports per minute 6,000

You can also use the API dashboard to view your API activity and quotas. To view limits, select an API and then select Quotas.

Request changes to Error Reporting API quotas

To determine whether you can request a higher or lower Error Reporting API limit for quota by using the Google Cloud console, go to the Quotas & System Limits page and search for the quota of interest.

  • If the quota is listed, then you can use that page to request a change to the limit. For information about those steps, see View and manage quotas.
  • If the quota isn't listed or if you request a quota update and get the error Edit is not allowed for this quota, then contact Cloud Customer Care and request a change to the quota. Billing must be enabled on the Google Cloud project to edit quotas in the Google Cloud console.

Deployment limits

There is a limit of 10,000 deployment-error group pairs, where a deployment is a combination of service and version. After you reach this limit, Error Reporting discards the oldest (or less-recently modified) deployments and their associated error data.

Data retention periods

Information in Error Reporting is retained for 30 days.
