The data source has throttled the request

Hi,

I’m experiencing issues with a custom cost dashboard built using SQL Analytics.

The setup involves two datasets, both user the Azure Data Source:

  • The first dataset uses the cost data stream (10 objects).
  • The second uses the cost-by-tag stream (69 objects).

I’m joining tables using SQL. Initially, each dataset contained a single tag or subscription, but I encountered the error:
“The data source has throttled the request.”

I simplified the setup as described above, but the issue persists. The error message is:

The data source has throttled the request, please try again later. The data stream has failed to return data. (429: Too many requests. Please retry.)

Any guidance on how to resolve or mitigate this throttling issue would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Zafar

Thanks for raising this @zafar.raza, apologies you’ve hit an issue. I’ve raised this with our Engineering team and they’ve identified an issue whereby we don’t automatically try to handle throttling/rate limits when using Azure Cost data with SQL Analytics. A fix has been proposed, though due to some complexity in testing this, it may take a week or two before it’s made generally available. I’ll update here once released. The fix reference is SAAS-8268.
