Auto-binding and Workflow Budget

Questions
1

I had a look, but not able to find anything that relates to this.

Does Auto-binding come for free? i.e. it does not count towards your workflow count.

As I understand it, workflow counts are triggered on a write to the database, but auto-binding does not use the workflow engine. So If I autobind 5 form values on a page to the underlying thing and change them each in turn, does that count as 5 workflow triggers or 0. If I was to trigger a workflow with a button and update the thing with the 5 values it would count as 1 run.

Looking for some clarity. Thanks.

My understanding is that it costs 0 workflows. Fairly certain (but not 100%). Believe I saw this in the documentation at some point.

This is not related to workload units. It’s about costs associated with an old pricing model from 2016 that bubble no longer uses.

Now with workload units in 2025 everytime you auto bind a single field that does cost workload units.
