# Rate limits on issue creation **(FREE SELF)**
|
|
|
|
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/28129) in GitLab 12.10.
|
|
|
|
This setting allows you to rate limit the requests to the issue and epic creation endpoints.
|
|
To can change its value:
|
|
|
|
1. On the top bar, select **Main menu > Admin**.
|
|
1. On the left sidebar, select **Settings > Network**.
|
|
1. Expand **Issues Rate Limits**.
|
|
1. Under **Max requests per minute**, enter the new value.
|
|
1. Select **Save changes**.
|
|
|
|
For example, if you set a limit of 300, requests using the
|
|
[Projects::IssuesController#create](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/blob/master/app/controllers/projects/issues_controller.rb)
|
|
action exceeding a rate of 300 per minute are blocked. Access to the endpoint is allowed after one minute.
|
|
|
|
When using [epics](../../group/epics/index.md), epic creation will share this rate limit with issues.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This limit is:
|
|
|
|
- Applied independently per project and per user.
|
|
- Not applied per IP address.
|
|
- Disabled by default. To enable it, set the option to any value other than `0`.
|
|
|
|
Requests over the rate limit are logged into the `auth.log` file.
