# Spend Limits
## Set Spend Limit
**POST** `/v1/organizations/spend_limits`
Set a per-user spend limit override.
Upsert keyed on (scope, period): setting a limit that already exists
overwrites it in place. Only `scope.type: "user"` is accepted; seat-tier,
group, and organization-level defaults are configured in claude.ai.
### Body parameters
- `amount: string or null`
Limit amount as a non-negative integer decimal string in the minor unit of the organization's billing currency (cents for USD): "50000" is $500.00. `null` sets an explicit no-limit override for this scope and `period` only — each period resolves independently, so caps for other periods still apply.
- `scope: object`
Scope selecting a single member of the organization.
- `type: "user"`
Scope type. Always `user` for this scope.
default: user
- `user_id: string`
Tagged ID of the member the spend limit applies to.
- `period: optional "daily" or "monthly" or "weekly"`
- `"daily"`
- `"monthly"`
- `"weekly"`
### Returns
- `BetaSpendLimit object`
A configured spend limit: a cap on metered spend for one scope and period.
- `type: "spend_limit"`
Object type. Always `spend_limit`.
default: spend_limit
- `id: string`
Unique tagged ID of the spend limit (`spl_...`).
- `amount: string or null`
Limit amount as a non-negative integer decimal string in the minor unit of `currency` (cents for USD): "50000" is $500.00. `null` means no numeric cap is configured at this scope — see the effective report for whether a limit applies.
- `created_at: string`
RFC 3339 datetime at which the spend limit was created.
format: date-time
- `currency: string`
ISO 4217 code of the organization's billing currency; the unit for `amount`.
- `period: "daily" or "monthly" or "weekly"`
Length of the window the limit resets over. `amount` caps spend within each period.
- `"daily"`
- `"monthly"`
- `"weekly"`
- `scope: object or object or object or 2 more`
What the limit applies to. A tagged union on `type`; each variant carries the identifier for its scope.
- `User object`
Scope selecting a single member of the organization.
- `type: "user"`
Scope type. Always `user` for this scope.
default: user
- `user_id: string`
Tagged ID of the member the spend limit applies to.
- `SeatTier object`
- `type: "seat_tier"`
default: seat_tier
- `seat_tier: string`
- `RBACGroup object`
- `type: "rbac_group"`
default: rbac_group
- `rbac_group_id: string`
- `OrganizationService object`
- `type: "organization_service"`
default: organization_service
- `service: string`
- `Organization object`
- `type: "organization"`
default: organization
- `updated_at: string`
RFC 3339 datetime at which the spend limit was last modified.
format: date-time
