## XBOX services Title Storage

- identity a placeholder: card and phone unknown | verified 2026-10-21 (inherited) | stale on 2026-11-05
- url https://devdocs.xbox.com/services/xbox-services/storage/title-storage/live-title-storage-overview
- free tier: Trusted Platform: 256 MB per player (Managed Partners) / 64 MB per player (Creators Program). Universal Platform: 64 MB per player. Global: 256 MB. No total-title byte cap published. | unit: MB | metered on: unstated | read on: 2026-10-21 | source: [1]
- per-object cap: per-object-cap: 64 MB | bytes: 64000000 | source: [1] | note: not stated
- retention: not stated | source: [1] | note: not stated
- egress: Not metered separately in the Title Storage docs; access is through Xbox services. | metered: yes
- identity: email
- interface: rest
- limits:
  - per-object-cap (binding): per-object-cap: 64 MB [1]
- limits note: per-object-cap: 64 MB per player on the Creator-Program tier; request-rate: ~60 reads or writes per hour per session, then throttled. Binary must be base64/hex encoded. Retention: not documented as expiring — data persists with the title.
- interface detail: rest
- tooling: Xbox services REST endpoints + GDK; data must be hex or base64 encoded because Title Storage 'doesn't process encoded data'.
- composes with: 256 MB per player x unlimited players, but the per-write encoding overhead (base64 = +33%) eats the ceiling, and Managed Partner status is a gate for the 256 MB tier.
- reliability: Throttles to roughly one call per minute averaged over an hour-long session, so bulk transfer is painful; the 256 MB tier requires Managed Partner status rather than self-serve signup.
- notes: the same as the free tier
- extras:
  - dead_end.failure_class: quota
  - dead_end.why: Trusted Platform: 256 MB per player (Managed Partners) / 64 MB per player (Creators Program). Universal Platform: 64 MB per player. Global: 256 MB. No total-title byte cap published.
  - dead_end.first_recorded: 2026-10-21
- evidence:
  - [1] 2026-10-21: quota table: 'Trusted Platform | 256 MB per player | 64 MB per player', 'Universal Platform | 64 MB per player', 'Global | 256 MB'; 'a title can make 60 reads or writes at the beginning of a session, but no more for the remainder of the hour'
