- question: Why do I get Usage Details API timeouts?
152152
answer: |
153-
Usage Details API timeouts often occur when requesting large datasets, as the API may not be able to process and deliver the data before timing out. To avoid these issues, we recommend using [Exports](costs/ingest-azure-usage-at-scale.md) for large or recurring usage datasets, or the [Cost Details API](automate/get-small-usage-datasets-on-demand.md) for smaller, on-demand queries. For guidance on migrating from the Usage Details API, see [Migrate from the Consumption Usage Details API](automate/migrate-consumption-usage-details-api.md).cv

If you’re an EA or MCA customer, `PayGPrice` is populated only for first party Azure usage charges where `PricingModel` is `OnDemand`, `Spot`, or `SavingsPlan`. `PayGprice` isn't populated when `PricingModel` = `Reservations` or `Marketplace`.

- question: Does Cost and usage details data have Reservation charges?
164164
answer: |
165165
Yes it does. You can see those charges when the actual charges occurred in the Actual Cost dataset or you can see the charges spread across the resources that consumed the Reservation or Savings Plan in the Amortized Cost dataset. For more information, see [Get amortized costs](costs/manage-automation.md#get-amortized-cost-details).

Any user from the partner organization who works on a customer's Power Apps resources can link the partner ID to the account. Ideally, the association in PAL should be done at the beginning of the project. However, it can be performed whenever you have access in the customer's directory.

PAL enables Microsoft to identify and recognize those partners who help customers achieve business goals and realize value in the cloud. Customers must first provide a partner access to their Power Apps resource. Once access is granted, the partner's Partner ID is associated. This association helps Microsoft understand service providers and to refine the tools and programs needed to best support customers.

The PAL association to existing credentials provides no new customer data to Microsoft. It provides the information to Microsoft where a partner is actively involved in a customer's Power Apps environments. Microsoft can attribute usage and influence from customer environment to partner organization based on the account's permissions (Power Apps role) and scope (tenant, Resource Group, Resource) provided to the partner by customer.
