Allocate AI Units to an Agent or Agentic Application in AI Agent Studio

You can create an individual allocation when an agent or agentic application requires a defined operating budget or a separately enforced limit. When planning allocations, give business-critical agents and agentic applications deliberate allocations before distributing the remaining budget. Review allocations when demand changes materially instead of waiting for budget exhaustion. If you use bulk distribution, verify that the resulting allocations continue to provide sufficient capacity for business-critical agents and agentic applications.

1. Go to AI Agent Studio and select the Usage and Value tab.
2. From the Allocations table, locate the agents and agentic applications, open its Actions menu, and select Edit Budget Allocation.
3. Review the budget dates and the available agents and agentic applications budget, as applicable.
4. From Budget, increase or decrease the allocation. The allocation can't exceed the remaining aggregate budget for its type after other allocations are considered.
5. Select the Soft Warning Thresholds and increase or decrease the First, Second and the Final warning values.
6. (Optional) In the Notification Email, enter the email addresses of recipients who should receive warning notifications.
7. Enable Auto-Stop if new runs for this allocation must be blocked when its budget is exhausted.
8. Enter the Reason for the change.
9. Select , and save your changes.

Note: If an allocation doesn't have a usable individual budget, don't interpret an empty consumption rate value as zero consumption.
