# CreateSpendingLimit


Creates a spending limit for a specified quantum device. Spending limits help you control costs by setting maximum amounts that can be spent on quantum computing tasks within a specified time period. Simulators do not support spending limits.

Required: Yes

 ** [deviceArn](#API_CreateSpendingLimit_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="braket-CreateSpendingLimit-request-deviceArn"></a>
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the quantum device to apply the spending limit to.  
Type: String  
Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 256.  
Required: Yes

 ** [spendingLimit](#API_CreateSpendingLimit_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="braket-CreateSpendingLimit-request-spendingLimit"></a>
The maximum amount that can be spent on the specified device, in USD.  
Type: String  
Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1.  
Pattern: `\d+(\.\d{1,2})?`   
Required: Yes

 ** [tags](#API_CreateSpendingLimit_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="braket-CreateSpendingLimit-request-tags"></a>
The tags to apply to the spending limit. Each tag consists of a key and an optional value.  
Type: String to string map  
Required: No

 ** [timePeriod](#API_CreateSpendingLimit_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="braket-CreateSpendingLimit-request-timePeriod"></a>
The time period during which the spending limit is active, including start and end dates.  
Type: [TimePeriod](API_TimePeriod.md) object  
Required: No

## Response Syntax


```
HTTP/1.1 201
Content-type: application/json

{
   "spendingLimitArn": "string"
}
```

## Response Elements


If the action is successful, the service sends back an HTTP 201 response.

The following data is returned in JSON format by the service.

 ** [spendingLimitArn](#API_CreateSpendingLimit_ResponseSyntax) **   <a name="braket-CreateSpendingLimit-response-spendingLimitArn"></a>
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the created spending limit.  
Type: String  
Length Constraints: Minimum length of 0. Maximum length of 256.  
Pattern: `arn:aws[a-z\-]*:braket:[a-z0-9\-]+:[0-9]{12}:spending-limit/.*`
