# Set a Temperature Threshold

`POST /thermostats/set_temperature_threshold`

Sets a [temperature threshold](/capability-guides/thermostats/setting-and-monitoring-temperature-thresholds) for a specified thermostat. Seam emits a `thermostat.temperature_threshold_exceeded` event and adds a warning on a thermostat if it reports a temperature outside the threshold range.

## Request body

- object
  - `device_id` string, uuid, required — ID of the thermostat device for which you want to set a temperature threshold.
  - `lower_limit_celsius` number, float, nullable — Lower temperature limit in in °C. Seam alerts you if the reported temperature is lower than this value. You can specify either `lower_limit` but not both.
  - `lower_limit_fahrenheit` number, float, nullable — Lower temperature limit in in °F. Seam alerts you if the reported temperature is lower than this value. You can specify either `lower_limit` but not both.
  - `upper_limit_celsius` number, float, nullable — Upper temperature limit in in °C. Seam alerts you if the reported temperature is higher than this value. You can specify either `upper_limit` but not both.
  - `upper_limit_fahrenheit` number, float, nullable — Upper temperature limit in in °C. Seam alerts you if the reported temperature is higher than this value. You can specify either `upper_limit` but not both.
