Plan limit reference

Updated

Your plan sets these limits (see your exact numbers on Quota & limits):

Limit Controls
max_devices How many devices you can register
min_publish_interval_ms Minimum gap between a device's messages
max_tenant_msgs_per_sec Aggregate messages/sec across all devices
max_msgs_per_hour Per-device hourly cap (if set)
max_dashboards / max_widgets Dashboard and per-dashboard widget counts
max_rules Number of alerting rules
allowed_actions Which rule action types you can use
max_action_fires_per_month Monthly action-fire budget (0 = unlimited)
max_storage Telemetry storage in MB (0 = unlimited)
telemetry_retention_days How long your readings are kept (0 = the platform default of 365 days)
event_retention_hours How long events are kept
store_telemetry Whether history is stored at all (realtime-only tiers = false)
allowed_egress_types Which integrations you can use
max_egress_destinations How many integration destinations you can have. Each one receives its own copy of every matching message
jobs_enabled / max_job_profiles Whether you can run jobs, and for how many machines
job_report_retention_days How long a generated job report is kept (0 = forever)
max_monitors Number of uptime monitors (monitors also use a device slot)
uptime_retention_days How far back uptime history can be read
max_seats Team members who can share the account

About telemetry retention

telemetry_retention_days is how far back your stored readings go. Free accounts keep 60 days; paid plans keep 12 months.

Two things are worth knowing. Readings past your window are deleted and cannot be restored — export anything you need to keep before changing plans. And if you move to a plan with a shorter window, nothing is removed during the notice period, so you have time to export or change your mind.

max_storage is a separate ceiling: whichever you reach first is the one that applies.

About job report retention

A job report is generated the first time you open it, and it freezes that job's readings so the record stays fixed. job_report_retention_days is how long we keep that frozen copy.

If your plan's window is a year or less, nothing is lost when a report ages out: the underlying telemetry is still stored, so opening the job simply builds the report again with the same numbers. Longer windows exist for records you need to produce after the telemetry itself has expired.
