# Limits

## Setup

Limit methods will be called on the DNS service, an instance of `OpenCloud\DNS\Service`. Please see the DNS service documentation for setup instructions.

## List all limits

This call provides a list of all applicable limits for the specified account.

    $limits = $service->limits();

### Absolute limits

There are some absolute limits imposed on your account - such as how many domains you can create and how many records you can create for each domain:

    $absoluteLimits = $limits->absolute;

    # Domain limit
    echo $absoluteLimits->domains;

    # Record limit per domain
    echo $absoluteLimits->{'records per domain'};

## List limit types

To find out the different limit types you can query, run:

    $limitTypes = $service->limitTypes();

will return:

    array(3) {
      [0] =>
      string(10) "RATE_LIMIT"
      [1] =>
      string(12) "DOMAIN_LIMIT"
      [2] =>
      string(19) "DOMAIN_RECORD_LIMIT"
    }

## Query a specific limit

    $limit = $service->limits('DOMAIN_LIMIT');

    echo $limit->absolute->limits->value;
