An active user is billed only once for accessing multiple Azure Managed Grafana instances under the same Azure Subscription.
Charges for active users are prorated during the first and the last calendar month of service usage. For example:
For an instance running from January 15 at 00:00 to January 25 at 23:59 with 10 users, the charge is for the prorated period they had access to the instance. Pricing is calculated for 10 users for 11 out of 31 days, which equals a charge for 3.54 active users.
For an instance running from January 15 at 00:00 to March 25 at 23:59:
- On January 31, the charge is for 10 users prorated for 16 days of January out of 31 days, totaling a charge for 5.16 active users.
- On February 28, the full monthly charge applies for 20 users.
- Upon deletion on March 25, the charge for March would be prorated for 15 users for 25 days out of 31 days, totaling a charge for 12.09 active users.
