Upgrading your Bing Search API key plan allows you to access higher request limits, advanced features, and better support options. Whether you're scaling your project or seeking additional capabilities, knowing how to upgrade your API plan is essential for seamless operation.

Step 1: Log Into Your Microsoft Azure Account

The process to upgrade your Bing Search API plan begins with signing into your Microsoft Azure portal. Visit Microsoft Azure Portal and log in with your credentials. If you do not have an account, you'll need to create one to proceed.

Step 2: Locate Your Bing Search Resource

Once logged in, navigate to the ‘Resource Groups’ section. From there, find the resource group that contains your Bing Search API resource. Click on your Bing Search resource to open its management dashboard.

Step 3: Review Your Current Plan

In the dashboard, locate the ‘Pricing Tier’ or ‘Scaling’ option. Here, you can view details about your current API plan, including the request quota, features, and cost. Understanding your current plan helps you determine the upgrade options suitable for your needs.

Step 6: Verify Your Updated API Plan

After upgrading, verify that your API key now reflects the new plan. You can do this by checking the ‘Pricing Tier’ section again or performing test queries to ensure increased request limits are in effect. This step ensures your upgrade was successful and your application can utilize the enhanced capabilities.
