Rate limits affect the entire server. You can limit the scope of the rate limit based on URLs. Rate limit configurations are stored in .universal/rateLimits.ps1 You can also use this cmdlet to create rate limits through the REST API. You can use Set-PSUSetting to configure allow lists for IPs, endpoints and computer names that are not affected by the rate limiting. ## EXAMPLES ### Example 1 ```powershell New-PSURateLimit -Endpoint "/myEndpoint" -Period ([TimeSpan]::FromMinutes(10)) -Limit 100 ``` Creates a new rate limit that prevents the user from calling the /myEndpoint endpoint more than 100 times in 10 minutes. ## PARAMETERS ### -AppToken The AppToken that is used for calling the PowerShell Universal Management API. You can also call Connect-PSUServer before calling this cmdlet to set the AppToken for the entire session. ```yaml Type: String Parameter Sets: (All) Aliases: Required: False Position: Named Default value: None Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False ``` ### -ComputerName Specifies the computer name or URL that should be called when accessing the PowerShell Universal Management API. You can also use Connect-PSUServer before calling this cmdlet to set the computer name for the entire session. ```yaml Type: String Parameter Sets: (All) Aliases: Uri Required: False Position: Named Default value: None Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False ``` ### -Endpoint The URL of the endpoint to rate limit. The URL can contain wildcards using the \* character. ```yaml Type: String Parameter Sets: (All) Aliases: Required: True Position: Named Default value: None Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False ``` ### -Limit The number of requests over the period. ```yaml Type: Int32 Parameter Sets: (All) Aliases: Required: True Position: Named Default value: None Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False ``` ### -Period The period of time to enforce the limit. ```yaml Type: TimeSpan Parameter Sets: (All) Aliases: Required: True Position: Named Default value: None Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False ``` ### -UseDefaultCredentials Use default credentials when connecting to the management API ```yaml Type: SwitchParameter Parameter Sets: (All) Aliases: Required: False Position: Named Default value: None Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False ``` ### -Integrated Executes the command internally rather than using the Management API. Only works when running script from within PowerShell Universal. ```yaml Type: SwitchParameter Parameter Sets: (All) Aliases: Required: False Position: Named Default value: None Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False ``` ### -Credential Credentials to login to the PowerShell Universal Management API. ```yaml Type: PSCredential Parameter Sets: (All) Aliases: Required: False Position: Named Default value: None Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False ``` ### -TrustCertificate Whether the cmdlet should ignore certificate issues. ```yaml Type: SwitchParameter Parameter Sets: (All) Aliases: Required: False Position: Named Default value: None Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False ``` ### -Name The name of this rate limit rule. ```yaml Type: String Parameter Sets: (All) Aliases: Required: False Position: Named Default value: None Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False ``` ### -Cookies Reuses and persists authentication cookies for the current PowerShell session. ```yaml Type: SwitchParameter Parameter Sets: (All) Aliases: Required: False Position: Named Default value: None Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False ``` ### CommonParameters This cmdlet supports the common parameters: -Debug, -ErrorAction, -ErrorVariable, -InformationAction, -InformationVariable, -OutBuffer, -OutVariable, -PipelineVariable, -Verbose, -WarningAction, -WarningVariable, and -ProgressAction.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.devolutions.net/powershell-universal/powershell-commands/new-psuratelimit.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
