Brex ACTION

Set Limit for User

Sets a user's recurring monthly spend limit, replacing any limit already in place. This governs corporate cards (Limit Type = USER); vendor cards carry their own limit set on the card itself. Use List Users to find the user ID and Get User Limit to read the current limit. See the documentation

IMPLEMENTATION

Call this tool

Connect a user's Brex account once, then configure and run Set Limit for User from your backend or agent.

import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const result = await pd.actions.run({
  id: "brex-set-limit-for-user",
  externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
  configuredProps: {
    brex: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
    user: "User",
    amount: 10,
  },
})

console.log(result)
