AmazonQUsageLimitError

I am getting "AmazonQUsageLimitError: Monthly limit reached" in VS Code.

I tried

  • logging out and in again
  • uninstall and re-install Amazon Q extension for VS Code

Nothing helped.

Thank you for your help.

It appears you've reached a monthly usage limit for Amazon Q Developer Pro. Despite the Pro tier being designed to provide access without hard monthly limits for general interactions, there are internal quotas for specific features that aren't publicly documented.

The error message you're seeing indicates you've reached one of these internal limits. Unfortunately, there isn't a straightforward way for users to increase these quotas themselves. These limits are likely in place to ensure fair usage and optimal performance for all subscribers.

Here are some options to consider:

  1. Wait for the next billing cycle: Your limits should reset at the beginning of your new billing period.

  2. Optimize your usage: Try to identify if there are ways to make your queries more efficient.

  3. Contact AWS support or your account representative: If you have a paid support plan, you might be able to discuss your specific needs and potentially get a limit increase.

  4. Verify your subscription setup: Ensure you're properly signed in with your IAM Identity Center user that has the Pro subscription. Sometimes switching between the Free tier and Pro tier requires signing out and back in again.

  5. Break down your prompts: In the meantime, you could try making smaller, more focused requests to continue working within the current limits.

This appears to be a known issue that other users have encountered as well. Some users have reported that their limits reset on the first of the month, so you may need to wait until then for full access to be restored.
