# Update spend caps

> Sets all three caps. All four fields are required — this replaces the configuration rather than patching it.

Writes are guarded by `expected_digest`: send the `configuration_digest` from your last read, and if someone changed the setting in between you get a **409** whose `error.current_state` is the configuration as it now stands. Re-read, show the user what changed, and resubmit.
