If you're approaching or exceeding your direct link usage quota, here's how to get more capacity.

Option 1: upgrade your plan

Higher-tier plans include higher direct link limits. To upgrade:

  1. Go to your Space settings

  2. Select Billing

  3. Click Change Plan

  4. Choose a plan with higher direct link limits

Option 2: Increase your direct link quota

You can also contact support to purchase additional Direct Link usage for your current plan.

Option 3: optimize your usage

Before upgrading, consider whether you can reduce usage:

Review high-traffic links - Check which assets are getting the most requests. Are they all necessary?

Optimize files - If you have high bandwidth make sure you are using optimized file formats and sizes to reduce load. You can use automaitc file conversion with Direct Links to help with this.

Consolidate usage - If multiple pages use the same asset, ensure they're using the same direct link rather than generating new ones.

Checking your current usage

View your direct link usage in the Insights dashboard:

  • Current month's usage

  • Usage trends over time

  • Top assets by request volume

This helps you understand your usage patterns and forecast future needs.

Enterprise options
