Error Message: The usage limit for generative orchestration has been reached. Please try again later. Error Code: GenAIToolPlannerRateLimitReached Conversation Id: CONVERSATION ID Time (UTC): 2025-11-24T06:06:49.154Z Here, I have just asked 2 questions to my multibot agent( which is connected to 2 agents). I have been getting this error for 3 days now. I am working in a developer environment and want to later publish the bots to a sandbox environment.

    Hello Prince Patel,
    The error GenAIToolPlannerRateLimitReached means your Copilot Studio environment has hit its quota for generative orchestration requests. This is common in developer environments, which have strict limits to prevent overuse.
    Developer environments have a default quota of 100 requests per minute and 2,000 requests per hour for generative orchestration (multibot orchestration, AI tools, generative answers). .These quotas apply per Dataverse environment, not per bot. If multiple bots or agents share the same environment, they consume from the same pool.After the quota is reached, all subsequent requests fail until the quota resets (usually after a minute or hour).
    Developer environments allow only light testing and have fixed rate limits, while sandbox and production environments support pay-as-you-go billing and optional capacity packs to raise limits.

    If you hit rate limits, wait for the quota to reset, reduce unnecessary request volume, or move to a sandbox/production environment with pay-as-you-go or capacity packs. Monitor Copilot credit usage to avoid limits, and in pay-as-you-go environments you can request a rate-limit increase. For multi-agent setups, keep orchestration minimal in developer environments and use sandbox/production for full-scale scenarios.
