For Lite plans, usage is measured by the number of /message calls (API) are sent to the assistant from the web chat integration. For all other plans, usage is measured by the number of monthly active users (MAU) that the web chat interacts with. The maximum number of allowed MAUs differs depending on your Watson Assistant plan type.



Plan details

 Plan Maximum usage 

 Enterprise Unlimited MAU 
 Premium (legacy) Unlimited MAU 
 Plus Unlimited MAU 
 Trial 5,000 MAU 
 Lite 10,000 API (approximately 1,000 MAU) 



For more information about how the web chat widget tracks MAUs, see [Billing](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/assistant?topic=assistant-web-chat-basicsweb-chat-basics-billing).
Migrating Watson IoT Platform Lite to Watson IoT Platform Non-production or Production 

IBM Watson® IoT Platform is deprecated. As of 30 April 2023, only subscribers on paid plans will be able to deploy new instances. The service will be fully withdrawn on 1 December 2023. Any instances that still exist on 1 December 2023 will be deleted. For more information, see [the deprecation details](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/IoT?topic=IoT-deprecation).

This IBM Cloud® documentation collection pertains to the IBM Watson® IoT Platform Lite pricing plan and includes basic getting started information, API references, and general troubleshooting information.

For the full Watson IoT Platform feature documentation, see the [Watson IoT Platform product documentation ![External link icon](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs-content/v1/content/icons/launch-glyph.svg)](https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSQP8H/iot/overview/overview.html) on IBM® Knowledge Center. More information about the various plans can be found in [Watson IoT Platform service plans](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/services/IoT?topic=IoT-plans_overviewplans_overview).

After you 'kick the tires' of Watson IoT Platform Lite and have a good understanding of how it fits in with your IoT environment, you can upgrade to [Watson IoT Platform Non-production or to one of the production plans ![External link icon](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs-content/v1/content/icons/launch-glyph.svg)](https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSQP8H/iot/overview/overview.html).

Note: This document is intended only for users who have a Lite instance. If you previously created instances of the IoT Platform with either the Standard or Advanced Security plans, IBM® will work with you to migrate your existing Watson IoT Platform instance to the new non-production or production plans.



 Migration process overview
Advanced rate limiting No No Yes Yes Yes 
 Bot management No No No Yes No 





 Deprecated plans 

The following plans are scheduled for deprecation or deprecated.



* The Standard plan reached the end of marketing on 30 April 2023. End of support is not yet determined.
* Enterprise Package, Enterprise GLB, and Enterprise Security plans will reach the end of marketing on 31 August, 2023. End of support is not yet determined.



For more information about changing to a new plan if you are currently on a deprecated plan, see [Transitioning to updated plans](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/cis?topic=cis-transition-plans).
If you are having trouble logging in to a service instance or see messages about tokens, such as unable to fetch access token or 400 bad request - header or cookie too large, it might mean that you need to clear your browser cache. Open a private browser window, and then try again.



* If accessing the page by using a private browsing window fixes the issue, then consider always using a private window or clear the cache of your browser. You can typically find an option for clearing the cache or deleting cookies in the browser's privacy and security settings.
* If accessing the page by using a private browsing window doesn't fix the issue, then try deleting the API key for the instance and creating a new one.



* I'm being asked to log in repeatedly

If you keep getting messages, such as you are getting redirected to login, it might be due to one of the following things:



* The Lite plan you were using has expired. Lite plans expire if they are not used within a 30-day span. To begin again, log in to IBM Cloud and create a new service instance of Watson Assistant.
* An instance is locked when you exceed the plan limits for the month. To log in successfully, wait until the start of the next month when the plan limit totals are reset.



* I'm getting a 401 response

The 401 response code is returned for many reasons, including:



* You exceeded the API call limit for your plan for this month. For example, for Lite plans, the monthly limit for API calls 10,000 messages per month. If you reach your limit for the month, but the logs show that you have made fewer calls than the limit, remember that the Lite plan stores log information for 7 days only. The 401 response will go away as soon as the next billing cycle begins, which is the first day of the calendar month.
* You are trying to use an instance-level API key that you created in one data center location to connect to a service instance that is hosted from another location. You must create an API key in the same data center location where your service instance is hosted.



* Getting Unable to fetch access token for account message
Pricing Scenario 2: Microservice with Feature Flags 

Assume you have five backend microservices that support your mobile app. To fully test new microservice features, you want to dark launch them into production and target them only to testers. The mobile app is used worldwide, so you have the set of five microservices in each of 3 regions worldwide, and you want to test in your app in each region before going live.

You are moving toward continuous delivery so on average you dark launch a new feature every 3 days (10 dark launches per month), and the feature undergoes a day or two of testing before being released (for example, targeting removed). This results in 2 toggles per feature, one to activate the feature for testers, and one to remove targeting and activate for the general user population.

You will need the App Configuration Enterprise plan since both feature flags and segmentation are required.

For this example, assume an Enterprise plan instance is $500 per month, active entity IDs are $0.01 each, and API calls are $10 per 100,000. NOTE: These prices are assumed for this example only. Current pricing may be different from the amounts shown in the example. See the App Configuration catalog page for current pricing.

App Configuration Enterprise instances: 1 @ $500 per month Active Entity IDs: 5 entity IDs per region * 3 regions = 15 Included Active Entity IDs: 10,000 Net Active Entity IDs: 0 (all included) = $0 API Calls: 3 instances per region * 3 regions * (10 dark launches per month * 2 toggles per release) = 180 Included API Calls: 1,000,000 Net API Calls: 0 (all included) = $0 TOTAL COST: $500 + $0 + $0 = $500 per month

You might use the same instance of App Configuration for both scenarios for a total cost of just over $1600 per month.



* What are the capabilities, quotas, and limits for various aspects of the App Configuration plans?

* If you upgrade to an Enterprise with Data Isolation plan, you cannot do an in-place upgrade of your service instance. An Enterprise with Data Isolation plan instance must be provisioned for you first. After the service instance is provisioned, you must export your dialog skills from the old plan instance, and import them into the new plan instance. For more information, see [Backing up and restoring data](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/assistant?topic=assistant-backup).
* When you upgrade from a legacy Standard plan, you change the metrics that are used for billing purposes. Instead of basing billing on API usage, the Plus plan bases billing on the number of monthly active users. If you built a custom app to deploy your assistant, you might need to update the app. Ensure that the API calls from the app include user ID information.

Similarly, a bucket in ca-tor will incur archive pricing for ca-tor.





 Can I move my existing buckets from Standard plan to One-Rate plan? 

Existing buckets in the Standard plan cannot be moved to the One-rate plan. Clients must first enroll in the One-Rate plan, create a new service instance and new buckets before data can be populated.





 Can I upgrade my Cloud Object Storage Lite plan instance to One-Rate plan? 

No, Lite Plan instances can only be upgraded to the Cloud Object Storage Standard plan.





 Are there any minimum object size or minimum duration requirements for objects stored with the One-Rate plan? 

There are no minimum object size or minimum duration requirements for the One-Rate plan.





 What is the cost of data retrieval from One Rate Active buckets? 

There is no data retrieval charge for the One Rate Active buckets.





 What happens if I exceed my monthly allowance for Outbound bandwidth and Operational requests? 

For any usage (Outbound bandwidth or Operational requests) that exceeds the allowance determined by aggregated monthly capacity, a small overage fee applies based on the One Rate pricing regions. See [One Rate pricing plan details](https://cloud.ibm.com/objectstorage/createpricing).





 Is the overage pricing tiered for Outbound bandwidth and Operational requests? 

No, the overage pricing for the One Rate plan has flat rates regardless of excess usage. See [One Rate pricing plan details](https://cloud.ibm.com/objectstorage/createpricing).





 I already have a Cloud Object Storage Standard plan in my IBM Cloud account. Can I add a One Rate plan for my new workloads? 

Yes, you can add a One Rate plan to your existing account in addition to the Standard plan. If you are a new to Cloud Object Storage, you can add either Standard or One Rate plan (or both) based on your workload requirements.
Why can't I access a different IBM Cloud location? 

You're unable to create a new location because your account type doesn't allow it.

  What’s happening 

You receive an error message when you try to create a new IBM Cloud location.

  Why it’s happening 

This error typically occurs because you're using a Lite account, which supports development in one public location only. For more information about Lite account features, see [Lite account](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/account?topic=account-accountsliteaccount).

  How to fix it 

To access more locations, upgrade to a billable account. Go to Manage > Account in the IBM Cloud console, and select Account settings. In the Account upgrade section, select your upgrade option.

To view information about using a different region for a service within the account, see [Using service endpoints](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/account?topic=account-vrf-service-endpointuse-service-endpoint) for global or regional endpoints for a particular service instance.
You also have the option of creating a custom configuration that includes the elements enrichment. See [Collection requirements](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/discovery?topic=discovery-element-classificationelement-collection) for details.
* Lite plans can process a maximum of 500 pages per month.
* Not available in Dedicated environments.
* Post-enrichment normalization cannot be performed when using Element Classification.



The Default Contract Configuration file was updated on September 25, 2018. If you applied this configuration to a collection prior to this date, see the [release notes](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/discovery?topic=discovery-release-notes25sept18) for information on updating your collection.





 Collection requirements 

The Element Classification enrichment is deprecated and will no longer be available, effective 10 July 2020.

To use Element Classification, your collection must be configured to meet specific requirements.

The Discovery tooling includes a configuration, named Default Contract Configuration, that is pre-configured to enrich PDF documents with the Element Classification enrichment and other required options. You can choose this configuration when you create your collection. The JSON for this configuration is:

{
"name": "Default Contract Configuration",
"description": "Extract party, nature, and category from elements in PDFs.",
"conversions": {
"html": {
"exclude_tags_completely": [],
"exclude_tags_keep_content": []
}
},
"enrichments": [
{
"source_field": "html",
"destination_field": "enriched_html_elements",
"enrichment": "elements",
"options": {
"model": "contract"
}
}
]
}
Show more

If you want to create a custom configuration file, configure your collection to meet the following requirements:



* PDF conversion settings are ignored if specified.
* WORD conversion settings can be omitted as Microsoft Word files cannot be ingested when Element Classification is specified.
* html normalization settings are ignored if specified.
Regression test and deploy the updated application.
5. [Delete your v1 plan service instance](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/discovery-data?topic=discovery-data-migrate-to-v2migrate-to-v2-delete).



Some steps require you to make programmatic changes by using the API and others involve changes that you can make from the product user interface.





 Plan the migration 

Get familiar with what's new in v2 and learn about how it differs from v1 before you provision a v2 instance. Your first v2 Plus plan trial instance is available at no charge for 30 days. Learn about and plan for the migration before you provision the instance so that you can get the most from your trial.

When you're ready to start the migration, create a migration schedule that you and your team can follow as you complete the process. Be sure to set up the new v2 service instance and get projects and collections re-created in the new service instance before you switch over to using the v2 service and before you delete your v1 instance.

Learn about the Discovery v2 plan options, so you can choose the right plan for your long-term needs. The Plus plan that you use to get started might be sufficient. However, you might choose to use an Enterprise or Premium plan instead. From a Plus plan, you can do an in-place upgrade to an Enterprise plan, but not to a Premium plan.



 Plan how to adapt your application 

One of the main changes between versions is that Discovery v2 introduces projects. A project consists of one or more collections. The advantage of using projects is that one query can run against many collections at the same time. Each collection can contain documents that you upload or that you crawl from a single data source, such as a website, Microsoft SharePoint, and more.

Things to consider when you adapt your application to use projects:



* Although the concept of an environment does not exist in v2, data is still organized into collections. In v2, collections are grouped into projects. In most cases, you want to migrate a single v1 collection to a single v2 collection.
Why can't I create a new organization? 

You try to create more than one org, and you have a Lite account.

  What’s happening 

You receive an error message when you try to create a new organization.

  Why it’s happening 

You're likely seeing this error because you're using a Lite account, which supports development in one organization only. For more information about Lite account features, see [Lite account](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/account?topic=account-accountsliteaccount).

  How to fix it 

To create a new org, upgrade to a billable account. In the IBM Cloud® console, go to Manage > Billing and usage, and select Payments.

For more information, see [Creating orgs and spaces](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/account?topic=account-orgsspacesusers&interface=ui).
