Hey monday code developers!

As part of our commitment to fostering a thriving and sustainable developer ecosystem, we’re sharing the guidelines about new usage limits for monday code, outlined in this post and documented here. These guidelines, applicable starting today, are designed to ensure platform stability, fair usage, and predictability for all developers and customers building on monday code and using monday apps.

Limits now in effect

The following limits are already enforced and documented, but we want to remind you of them:

  • monday code apps limits: Maximum of 5 monday code apps per account
  • Requests limits:
    • Up to 80 concurrent requests per instance.
    • Up to 10 instances (auto scale).
    • Request timeout: 300 seconds max per request.
  • Memory Size: Limit of 512MB RAM per instance
  • Storage Limits:
    • Key length: 256.
    • Storage per key: 6MB.
    • Storage API Concurrency: 1,000 requests/min per JWT token.
    • Secret Storage API Concurrency: 30 requests/sec.

Currently in monitoring phase (enforcement in Q2)

  • Running Minutes per Instance: This limit is currently in log mode only, meaning it will be monitored without enforcement. We are tracking usage patterns to provide developers with feedback and insights. Enforcement will begin in Q2, giving you time to prepare. See here for more details

Why are these limits necessary?

Monday code has shown strong adoption across developers, partners, and customers since its General Availability (GA) release. As the platform grows, we are encountering instances of overuse that stretch our infrastructure. These clear limits enable us to balance fairness and scalability, while supporting the creation of complex apps.

What’s next?

These changes align with our broader efforts to introduce advanced limiting mechanisms, similar to those in our GraphQL APIs, to support platform maturity and reliability.

We encourage you to review the monday code quotes and limits documentation and assess how these changes might impact your apps.

Your feedback is invaluable as we roll out these changes. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions.

@gregra thanks for the reminder :slight_smile:

Is there going to be a monitoring screen (say) in the developer centre that warns vendors when they are over quota?

Hey David, this is still TBD, more details will be published prior to the rollout

  • Maximum of 5 monday code apps per account

Is this a hard rule, or is it possible to update? I have 4 marketplace apps at the moment, dev versions of those, and a few others in development and if I modernize some of the older ones (which predate monday code) I will be welllll over this limit.

Hey Ben, this is a case by case situation. If you have 5 marketplace apps on monday code, and you need more, we will probably extend this limit for you. This limit is intended so that developers that have toy apps / private apps that produce little to zero value won’t abuse our infra.
If you need to extend your limits (not just that one), you should open a support ticket and we’ll reach out to you directly to understand your specific need.
Hope it makes sense

I’m guessing that this 5 app limit is to stop the crypto miner wannabes and other freeloaders.
