I have a google app script that execute the following actions:
Read a incoming webhook, write some information on a google spreadsheet, update a google contact and generates several outbound webhooks.
It takes aproximately 5 seconds to execute the whole script.
I would like to know how much times per day I can execute this script. I have seen the following web page but I am not sure in which feature my actions might fit, since there is no description of what those each feature means.
https://developers.google.com/apps-script/guides/services/quotas
Also I check in the google app script dashboard in hope I could find the current usage of my app script, but I only found that my script is execute 500 times per day for an average of 5 seconds per execution. In the future I am going to need to execute this app script more times, but I will like to know which is limit.
¿Where can I find my current app script consumption and which are the quotas for the features I am currently using?
As mentioned in the comments, Google Apps Script has a quota page that shows execution limits on various services.
Please note that you can get quota exception messages if you go near these limits but not go over them entirely.
Since you mentioned that you may need to execute your script more than 500 times a day, you might want to start optimizing your functions to take less time. You can start searching for resources on how to do this, for example in this post: Tracking total execution time Google apps script for an account

I have a very simple question which is if we can avoid the error:
Exception: Service invoked too many times for one day: urlfetch.
by attaching our Google Apps Script to a Google Cloud Project?
The current quota is 20K to 100K a day depending if you have a Free or a Google Workspace account.
At this point I would be OK if I had to pay Google for any executions over the limit. Is it possible?
The steps I've taken so far:
Create GCP project
Link Google Apps Script to GCP project
Set up the OAuth of the GCP project
In case it is possible I think I'm missing an additional step to confirm Google I'd like to pay for any extra processing time that the GAS project requires, can anyone please confirm/point me to an example on how to set it up?
UPDATE:
I'm starting to look if that quota can be modified on this IAM & Admin -> Quotas section
You can take a look on your Quotas page at your GCP project:
Cloud Functions Quotas Page
When you reach a quota limit
When a function consumes all of an allocated resource, the resource becomes unavailable until the quota is refreshed or increased. This may mean that your function and all other functions in the same project will not work until then. A function returns an HTTP 500 error code when one of the resources is over quota and the function cannot execute.
To increase quotas above the defaults listed here, go to the Cloud Functions Quotas Page, select the quotas you want to modify, click EDIT QUOTAS, supply your user information if prompted, and enter the new quota limit for each quota you selected.
i don't know if your project is firebase related, but can take a look at complete article about quotas in this link:
Quotas and limits
I am trying to evaluate Google Apps Script (GAS) as one of the component in my overall SaaS. But, I see there is quota limits.
https://developers.google.com/apps-script/guides/services/quotas#current_limitations
Can someone explain what "Simultaneous executions" stands for? Is it 30 Simultaneous executions per a script? Or 30 Simultaneous executions per an account?
I think it's per account. This is important when publishing web apps. When set to execute as "Me", you're limited to 30 simultaneous executions of all users, since they all run as "Me". But if set to execute as "user accessing the web app", then each user gets 30 simultaneous executions. Refer #Tanaike's answer
This also makes sense in case of add-on, where a single script project is published to execute as many users. If simultaneous executions of 30 applies per script, then a add-on could only have 30 users, which is certainly not the case.
Related Error messages from Google documentation:
Script invoked too many times per second for this Google user account. This indicates that the script began executing too many times in a short period. It most commonly occurs for custom functions that are called repeatedly in a single spreadsheet. To avoid this error, code your custom functions so that they only need to be called once per range of data, as explained in the guide to custom functions.
There are too many scripts running simultaneously for this Google user account. This indicates that you have too many scripts executing at once, although not necessarily the same script. Like the exception above, this most commonly occurs for custom functions that are called repeatedly in a single spreadsheet.
Notice both error messages end in "for this Google user account"

In almost all cases, Google representative says "for account". You may also create a new issue in the issuetracker for explicit documentation or clarification.
I have created a UI Page with Google Apps Script, it fetches data from a spreadsheet and display it in the Page. A function (added in JS Page) is called at a certain time interval continuously to refresh the content in the Page with the help of JavaScript method "setInterval(functionName,Time)". No other triggers are set for this refresh thing.
When I see the executions, the refresh things runs as a web app only.
Is the web App running time included in the total trigger run-time quota for apps script?
The doGet(e) and doPost(e) functions are sometimes referred to as triggers in the documentation so I believe using Web Apps do count towards your trigger quotas. They also count towards your script usage quotas as well.
You can run the script for 6 minutes on each execution, for daily executions time there is no reference but you might reach the limitation of triggers total runtime which is 90 min / day
To check other limitations please see: Quotas for Google Services
This question already exists:
Exceeded maximum execution time in Google Apps Script [duplicate]
Closed 7 years ago.
My Google script, which I'm runnig from script.google.com invokes a PHP script on a remote server. This PHP script works for a few minutes, maybe more.
How much time can the Google script wait for a response from server?
Check this advice from Google.
We do not increase script execution times on a per-domain basis. There are ways for you to accomplish your use-case without any increases, however. Instead of trying to do everything in one script's execution time, use a sequence of script executions (using triggers) to process batches of the overall job. You can use ScriptDB or another persistent datastore to keep track of the documents processed, and each subsequent triggered execution can read from this and pick up processing where the previous execution left off.
Better than "waiting" for the response, is making the PHP call a new function on GAS (sorta like a callback), to do this publish your GAS with the options "As me" and "Anyone, even anonymous". Then you can call the /exec link with Get/Post parameters and continue executing the function.
This is ofcourse if your editor on the PHP page.
I have a Google Apps Script which returns JSON from the content of a spreadsheet. The script is deployed as a webapp run by the owner of the script. The JSON is then used to feed a Google Maps website accessible by everybody.
Is there any kind of limits on how many times the script can be called
by the website?
You didn't mention wether the site has an apps-script gadget to retrieve data or not so I guess it hasn't.
The main limit you are going to meet is the total computing time if your script is called very often. The maximum for 1 day is 1 hour : looking at the usual execution time you can have a rough idea of the number of executions per day, and from there the number of requests.
