# Set restrictions

`POST /api/connector/v1/restrictions/set`

Adds new restrictions with the specified conditions. For improved efficiency, multiple similar restrictions will be merged into a single restriction. A quota of 150,000 restrictions per service applies, although it is unlikely to be exceeded because of the merging algorithm. For more information about the merging algorithm, see [Restrictions concepts](https://mews-systems.gitbook.io/connector-api/concepts/restrictions).

Care is needed to specify `StartUtc` and `EndUtc` in the correct format - see [Datetimes](https://mews-systems.gitbook.io/connector-api/guidelines/serialization#datetimes).

Only restrictions created through the API are affected by this operation, *not* restrictions created by the user within **Mews Operations**. Similarly, if a user creates a restriction in **Mews Operations**, this will *not* affect restrictions created through the API.

## Response `200`

OK

- Unit

## Other responses

- `204` — Server has successfully fulfilled the request and there is no additional information to send back.
- `400` — Error caused by the client app, e.g. in case of malformed request or invalid identifier of a resource. In most cases, such an error signifies a bug in the client app (consumer of the API).
- `401` — Error caused by usage of invalid ClientToken, AccessToken, or you may not have the necessary permission to use the endpoint.
- `403` — Server error that should be reported to the end user of the client app. Happens for example when the server-side validation fails or when a business-logic check is violated.
- `408` — Error caused by heavy request that takes too long to process (typically tens of seconds). To get around this, request data in smaller batches. For more information, see [Request timeouts](https://mews-systems.gitbook.io/connector-api/guidelines/requests#request-timeouts)
- `409` — The request cannot be completed because the data has changed, causing conflict between the state on the client and the server. To get around this error, try refreshing the data on the client and resubmitting the request.
- `429` — Error caused by too many requests sent in a given amount of time. Response contains `Retry-After` header indicating how long the user agent should wait before making a follow-up request. For more information, see [Request limits](https://mews-systems.gitbook.io/connector-api/guidelines/requests#request-limits).
- `500` — Unexpected error on the Mews side. This may be due to a software fault. If such a situation occurs, the error will be logged and the development team notified, however you can raise an issue through GitHub on our [documentation repository](https://github.com/MewsSystems/gitbook-connector-api).
