Quota management
Manage team quotas in your Coralogix account using the following tutorial.
Overview
The quota management API allows team administrators to view and distribute quotas across teams they manage. Allocate and move quotas across teams for any period to:
-
Contend with unexpected spikes in logs shipping to one team
-
Better handle resources when a team is underutilizing its quota
-
Meet new or changing capacity requirements of your teams
-
Save on cost by more efficiently using quotas

-
Teams API key (Access this in Account settings > API Access)
-
Team ID (Access this in Account settings > Send Your Logs)
