Metering and Throttling
Metering measures resource utilization levels and throttling controls resource access and use based on defined rules.
Metering measures the number of server-side documents that are generated by an org hourly and daily. The default hourly and daily limits for processing server-side document generation requests are 1,000 per org and 24,000 per org respectively.
Throttling maintains consistency and resilience of the server-side document generation service by managing incoming server-side document generation requests from multiple orgs. Throttling can also prevent service degradation caused by high volume of requests at peak hours by blocking requests that exceed the default limits. The request details are saved in the Document Generation Processes entity. You can retrieve the blocked requests and later retry the server-side document generation. For more information, see Create DocGenRetryBlockedBatch Apex Class.
View Document Generation Requests
You can view the document generation requests and its status from the Document Generation Processes page. You can use this sample URL to view the Document Generation requests: https://{{baseUrl}}/lightning/o/DocumentGenerationProcess/home. Replace the base url with your org details.
Here's an example of the Document Generation Processes page that shows the blocked document generation requests because the daily limit has reached.
