I have a question about Gmail API limit.
About "Daily Usage" Quota of the URL below, Is this a per-project limit?
Is there a way to relax this limitation?
https://developers.google.com/gmail/api/v1/reference/quota
We currently develop services using the Gmail API for multiple Bussiness companies.
There is concern that it will exceed when the assumed total number of users becomes large, and I am asking such a question.
Is it possible to create different project for each customer and avoid the limit?
In that case, do I have to apply "OAuth Developer Verification" for each project?
https://support.google.com/code/contact/oauth_app_verification
Understanding the quotas can be a little hard. The way i remember is if the name has user in it its a user quota
This one is project based.
Daily Usage 1,000,000,000 quota units per day
This one is user based.
Per User Rate Limit 250 quota units per user per second, moving average (allows short bursts)
Some quotas can be increased you should check the quota section of the google developers console. under Enabled APIs and services click the api in question and go to the quotas tab in the new window. if there is a pencil icon you can increase it.

I'd like to make a GAE app multi-tenant to cater to different clients (companies), database namespaces seems like a GAE endorsed solution. Is there a meaningful way to split GAE fees among client/namespaces? GAE costs for app are mainly depends on user activities - backend instances up time, because new instances are created or (after 15 min delay) terminated proportionally to the server load, not total volume of data user has or created. Ideally the way the fees are split should be meaningful and could be explained to the clients.
I guess the most fair fee splitting solution is just create a new app for a new client, so all costs reported separately, yet total cost will grow up, I expect few apps running on same instances will use server resources more economically.
Every app engine request is logged with a rough estimated cost measurement. It is possible to log the namespace/client associated with every request and query the logs to add up the estimated instance costs for that namespace. Note that the estimated cost field is deprecated and may be inaccurate. It is mostly useful as a rough guide to the proportion of instance cost associated with each client.
As far as datastore pricing goes, the cloud console will tell you how much data has been stored in each namespace, and you can calculate costs from that. For reads/writes, we have set up a logging system to help us track reads and writes per namespace (i.e. every request tracks the number of datastore reads and writes it does in each namespace and logs these numbers at the end of the request).
The bottom line is that with some investments into infrastructure and logging, it is possible to roughly track costs per namespace. But no, App Engine does not make this easy, and it may be impossible to calculate very accurate cost estimates.
We are building a service that utilizes the Gmail API. In order to understand our costs as we scale, I would like to know how much it costs to use the Gmail API. I've followed the instructions at https://developers.google.com/gmail/api/v1/reference/quota through to the point at which it says:
If you have enabled billing for your project [we have], clicking Quota
takes you to a page where you can view and change quota-related
settings.
The only option on that page for changing our daily quota is to "Apply for higher quota"; however, clicking that opens a window that says:
Please be sure to review the existing quota limits to confirm you need
more than the daily default.... If you simply have a question on limits, please ask it on the Stack
Overflow forum
Thus, I am asking here: what is the cost per API unit when one's needs exceed the daily free quota?
The API isn't marked as "billable" meaning it's free up to a limit and there's no set/published pricing above that. If you are using your existing quota or are getting close and want to ask for more, I think best place is to ask on the quota request form. It's quite reasonable to ask for quota to provision for a few quarters of growth IMO and if you're migrating from some other API (e.g. IMAP, atom feed, DOM hacking) then obviously that should be quite reasonable to provision all that beforehand as well.
I have a paid app and can see the quota is 90,040 per day for channels created.
I have looked at all the pricing pages from cloud services and developer pricing pages and can not see any prices regarding the cost per channel created after the 100 free limit.
https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/quotas#Channel this page only says the daily limit is "Based on your budget" but I do not see any costs anywhere on the web.
Am I to assume that I get 90,040 free per day for having a paid app
As I understand the pricing changed recently and that's why the documentation is a little confusing. It used to be that you paid a tiny amount for each channel (something like 0.0001 - don't remember how many zeroes).
Now this tiny charge is canceled. You are just paying for CPU & bandwidth that your channels are using. That's why it says according to budget.
It's the same story with Email, and various other APIs as mentioned here: https://cloud.google.com/appengine/pricing. I'm fairly sure Channel API should be included in the last row in the resource billing table.
It costs 10,000 micropennies to create a channel (or 100 channels per 1 cent, see appstats for more).
See a more detailed answer to the same question here: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/google-appengine/uQFWM6F--hY
do i get 50 thousand free writing operation if I enabling billing, according to this picture that taken from https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/quotas?hl=iw
I can't see that:
See billable limits, where it says:
Every application gets an amount of each resource for free, but application administrators can increase these quotas by enabling paid apps and setting a daily budget. You will be charged for the resources your application actually uses, and for the amount of resources used above the free quota thresholds.
So yes, you get 50k free write ops per day.
Does anyone have any number on Google App Engine (free quota) in terms of total number of request and unique visitors it allows per day?
Maybe someone who has live production code can tell us this?
Rough number is enough, just to get the idea.
I can not get this information from the pricing model.
Thanks
I had this question when I first started using App Engine, but it's impossible to answer with the information in your question.
You must have an estimate on the individual API quota usages, then calculate based on that.
You might be able to simplify it by trying to figure out which API quota you're likely to hit first, and then figuring out the number of requests you can serve before that quota runs out. ie:
Storing photos or other large data for users? You'll probably hit the blobstore quota first. Daily/unique visitor counts probably won't matter.
Serving lots of photos or large data? You'll probably hit the bandwidth quota first.
Need to start a channel for every view? You'll probably hit the channel quota first and get 100 views per day.
Need to send an email for every view? You'll probably hit the mail quota first.
Need to query the datastore a lot? You'll probably hit the datastore limit first.
The datastore limit is the hardest to calculate. You get 50k read and 50k write ops. Most likely you'd read more than write.
If you need 2 read ops per page, you might could do 25k views per day.
If you need 2 read ops per page, but you're smart and you memcache them, and memcache is effective 80% of the time, you could get 125k views per day.
If you need 500 read ops per page and you can't cache it, you can do 100 views per day. That's provided you don't run out of one of the other quotas.
Do your own math.
The quotas and rates (for free and paid apps) are listed on https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/quotas.
