On what authority

Microsoft documents the storage limits and does not publish a fill level at which anybody should be told. Ninety per cent is our number, chosen so that a site growing at an ordinary rate is noticed with weeks rather than days of room. A tenant that manages quota centrally, or one that grants storage on request within a day, can reasonably ignore this rule.

This basis carries no external source, and that is the type saying so: a convention is this product's own threshold rather than a vendor's, and attaching a page that does not state it would be worse than admitting authorship.

What it needs to decide

  • site.storage_used_mb
  • site.storage_quota_mb
  • site.storage_used_percent

Without these facts the rule answers unknown, which is not a pass and is not a failure: it is the rule saying the evidence could not settle the question.

Where the evidence comes from

  • sites: every site this identity can enumerate · fully live-validated

What a pass does not establish

A site at 40 per cent that doubles every month passes this rule twice before it fails it. The rule reads one number on one day: it measures a level and says nothing about a rate, and the rate is what decides when anybody needs to act.

  • A pass means "below the threshold at the moment of collection", never "has room". Storage moves between collections and this figure does not.
  • The percentage is derived from the two figures beside it. Where the quota is unlimited or not recorded, the rule reports not-applicable rather than assuming a denominator.
