What does the "API Throttling" and "API Throttling Warnings" mean?

Question

In app insights, under API->Activity & Errors there are sections pertaining to: "Api Throttling" and "API Throttling Warnings". But I can't find documentation for what these sections mean and how to interpret them anywhere.

1. What are the time values shown next to each section? i.e. Api Throttling - x minutes?
2. What is this "fraction of budget"? And why do the %'s never seem to add up? :-P

Answer 1

What are the time values shown next to each section? i.e. Api Throttling - x minutes?

How long you have to wait until throttling ends

What is this "fraction of budget"? And why do the %'s never seem to add up?

The ratio of your total units to your consumed units
