## Examples

### TypeScript Management SDK

`NexusAdminClient.createQuotaStrategy` uses `AdminOperationInput<"createQuotaStrategy">` and returns `Promise<AdminOperationOutput<"createQuotaStrategy">>`.

```ts
import { NexusAdminClient } from '@nexus/sdk-typescript';

const nexus = new NexusAdminClient({
  baseUrl: 'https://nexus.microvoid.io',
  managementKey: process.env.NEXUS_MANAGEMENT_KEY,
});

const result = await nexus.createQuotaStrategy({
  path: {
    workspaceId: '533c4e1e-2823-4349-86b9-d6f1a869a2ca',
  },
  body: {
    key: 'example-key',
    resetInterval: 'MONTH',
    quotaUnits: 'string',
    inputMultiplierPpm: 'string',
    outputMultiplierPpm: 'string',
    cachedInputMultiplierPpm: 'string',
    maxOutputTokens: 1,
  },
});
```

### Fetch

```ts
const response = await fetch(
  'https://nexus.microvoid.io/admin/v1/workspaces/533c4e1e-2823-4349-86b9-d6f1a869a2ca/plan-strategies/quota',
  {
    method: 'POST',
    headers: {
      Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.NEXUS_MANAGEMENT_KEY}`,
      'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    },
    body: JSON.stringify({
      key: 'example-key',
      resetInterval: 'MONTH',
      quotaUnits: 'string',
      inputMultiplierPpm: 'string',
      outputMultiplierPpm: 'string',
      cachedInputMultiplierPpm: 'string',
      maxOutputTokens: 1,
    }),
  },
);

if (!response.ok) throw new Error(`Nexus request failed: ${response.status}`);
```

### curl

```bash
curl --request POST \
  "https://nexus.microvoid.io/admin/v1/workspaces/533c4e1e-2823-4349-86b9-d6f1a869a2ca/plan-strategies/quota" \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer ${NEXUS_MANAGEMENT_KEY}" \
  --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --data "{\"key\":\"example-key\",\"resetInterval\":\"MONTH\",\"quotaUnits\":\"string\",\"inputMultiplierPpm\":\"string\",\"outputMultiplierPpm\":\"string\",\"cachedInputMultiplierPpm\":\"string\",\"maxOutputTokens\":1}"
```
