Hi Team

I been looking some information how limit / maximum permission can be assigned to API  
based on this doc [Entity Limit Policy](https://auth0.com/docs/troubleshoot/customer-support/operational-policies/entity-limit-policy)

there no specific mention Permission Per API but refer to Scopes per API and Permission per User or role ?

If we are planning to set 1K permission to API is safe approach or not ?

Thanks

Hi @rizki.rachman,

In your API’s Permissions tab you can see that permissions are also referred to as scopes

In the documentation it is stated that theres [a limit of 1000 Scopes per API](https://auth0.com/docs/troubleshoot/customer-support/operational-policies/entity-limit-policy#:~:text=Scopes%20per%20API,1000).

If you have any other questions feel free to reach out.

Have a good one,  
Vlad
