I am wondering if the Bing Search API (250 TPS) is not covered by my free credits when starting with Azure (200 Dollar). It's being shown as a cost (currently 70 Euro), but my remaining balance says I still have the full credits (200 Dollar) remaining (in the dashboard).

I would have assumed the Bing Search API charges are being covered by the credits I received to get started. Is it just not shown that way in the dashboard?

    Hello @Pascal , Thanks for using Microsoft Q&A Platform.

    Here are the pricing details for the Bing search API.

    User's image Make sure you check your subscription and the resource details. If you are using standard (S1) instance, then you will be charged as mentioned here in the screenshot.

    If you have created Azure free account, during the first 30 days you have $200 credit in your billing currency to use on any service, except for third-party Marketplace purchases.

    You can experiment with different tiers and types of Azure services using the free credit to try out Azure. If you use services or Azure resources that aren’t free during that time, charges are deducted against your credit.

    Try to check your Usage once again.

    Regards,
    Vasavi
