Usage Management
Usage Management is an Olly Settings screen that shows your team's AI Units consumption on Olly in the current billing cycle. Anyone on your team can open it to see team-wide, per-user, and per-API-key spending. Admins can cap consumption with monthly limits set per user or per user group, and cap the AI Units each Olly-enabled API key consumes, to prevent any one user or API key from depleting the team's shared quota and to even out usage across the team.
What you need
- Olly turned on for your team. See Enable Olly.
- An Olly allocation in Quota Rules. Until you allocate units to the
ollyentity type, the Total Usage card has no allocation to show. - The
OLLY-USAGE:MANAGEpermission to set or reset limits. See Permissions for what this permission allows. Viewing the screen doesn't require it.
Allocate units to Olly
In Quota Rules, the olly entity type starts as Unallocated. To give the Usage Management screen a quota to track:
- Open Data Flow, then Quota Rules.
- In Allocations by entity type, search for
olly. - On the
ollyrow, enter a value in the Allocation column (as Percentages or Units), then select Allocate in the Status column. - Select Save.
Once the rule is active, the Usage Management screen reads the allocation and shows progress against it. For the full Quota Rules workflow, see Quota Rules.
Open Usage Management
In Coralogix, navigate to Settings, then under Olly AI select Usage Management.
The screen has two parts:
- The Daily team quota bar and the Team Overview card summarize team-wide consumption and what remains today.
- The Users, Groups, and Automations & Agents tabs break usage down: Users lists every team member with their groups, usage, effective limit, and status; Groups lists your team's user groups so you can limit everyone in a group at once; Automations & Agents lists your team's Olly-enabled API keys — including the keys that automations run as — so you can limit each one.
View team-wide Olly usage
The Daily team quota bar shows how much of the team's daily AI Units allocation the team has consumed on Olly. To request a higher allocation, talk to your account manager or Coralogix Support, or select Upgrade.
The Team Overview card breaks down today's usage:
- Total spent today: All AI Units the team has consumed on Olly today, with the share of the daily allocation it represents.
- Remaining today: The AI Units left in the team's daily allocation, with the share remaining.
Set a per-user monthly limit
A per-user limit caps how many AI Units a team member can consume on Olly in the current billing cycle. When a user reaches their limit, they can't use Olly until the cycle resets.
To set a limit for one user:
- On the Users tab, find the user row.
- Select Edit limit.
- In New limit value (units), enter a value within the displayed range.
- Select Apply.
The new limit takes effect immediately.
To set the same limit on several users at once:
- On the Users tab, select the check box in each user row you want to update.
- Select Set usage limit.
- In New limit value (units), enter a value within the displayed range.
- Select Apply.
Set a per-group monthly limit
A group limit caps how many AI Units every member of a Coralogix user group can consume on Olly in the current billing cycle, without setting each member individually. It applies to group members who have no per-user limit of their own. Manage which users belong to a group in Groups.
To set a limit for a group:
- On the Groups tab, find the group row.
- Select Set Limit.
- In New group limit (units), enter a value within the displayed range.
- Select Apply.
The Groups tab shows each group's member count and current monthly limit. To remove a group's limit, open the more actions menu in the group's row and select Clear limit.
When a user belongs to more than one group that has a limit, the highest (most permissive) group limit applies.
To find the users a group limit affects, use the group filter on the Users tab. The Groups column there shows each user's group memberships.
Set a limit for an API key
The Automations & Agents tab lists your team's Olly-enabled API keys — including the team API keys that automations run as, such as the key created by automatic case analysis. Each key appears as a card with its name, key ID, monthly AI Units usage, and status, and stays listed whether or not it has consumed any units. Use Search API keys to filter the list by name or key ID.
A limit caps how many AI Units a key can consume on Olly in the current cycle:
- A key with a limit shows its usage against that limit — a percentage and a
used / total unitsbar — and its footer reads Custom limit or Default limit. - A key with no limit shows only the units it has used and is marked Unlimited.
To set a limit for one key:
- On the Automations & Agents tab, find the key's card.
- Select Edit limit.
- In New limit value (units), enter a value within the displayed range.
- Select Apply.
The limit takes effect immediately.
To apply one limit to every key without a custom limit, select Set default monthly limit at the top of the tab. To clear a key's custom limit so it falls back to the default, open the more actions menu on the key's card and select Reset to default limit.
A key's status badge reflects its usage against its effective limit — the custom limit when set, otherwise the default. A disabled key is dimmed and marked Disabled.
How the effective limit is chosen
Only one limit applies to a user at a time. Coralogix uses the most specific limit that exists, in this order:
- Per-user limit: an explicit limit set for that user. Overrides every other level.
- Group limit: applies when the user has no per-user limit. If the user is in several groups that have limits, the highest one applies.
- Team default limit: applies when the user has neither a per-user nor a group limit.
- Team allocation: when no limit is set at any level, the user is capped only by the team's overall AI Units allocation.
On the Users tab, each row indicates which of these applies to that user — a per-user limit, a group limit and the group it comes from, or the team default.
Reset a user limit to the team default
Resetting clears a user's per-user limit so their effective limit falls back to the next level that applies — a group limit, then the team default, then the team's overall AI Units allocation. See How the effective limit is chosen.
- On the Users tab, open the more actions menu in the user's row.
- Select Reset to default limit.
Status badges
Each user row carries a status badge that reflects their position against the effective limit — the per-user limit when present, otherwise a group limit, otherwise the team default, otherwise the team's overall AI Units allocation. See How the effective limit is chosen.
| Badge | Meaning |
|---|---|
| OK | Usage is under 70% of the effective limit. |
| Approaching | Usage has reached 70% of the effective limit but is still under the limit. |
| Limit reached | Usage has reached or exceeded the limit. The user can't use Olly until the next cycle. A user whose effective limit is 0 is locked out from the start of the cycle — raise their limit in Edit limit to restore access. |
Use the status filter in the table header to narrow the list to one or more statuses.
Permissions
What you can do on the screen depends on whether you hold the OLLY-USAGE:MANAGE permission. Viewing is open to everyone. Only admins can change limits.
