# blossom spending:update

Set the Account's email alert

## Usage

    blossom spending:update [--data DATA]

## Flags

| Flag | Description |
| --- | --- |
| `--data, -d` | YAML or JSON data, a path to a data file, or an HTTP(S) URL |

Set the Account's email alert:

    blossom spending:show
    blossom spending:init
    blossom spending:update --data spending.yml

```yaml
spending:
  warning_monthly_amount: "100.00"
  warning_enabled: true
```

Omit unchanged settings. Blossom emails the Organization billing address once
a month when the month's charges so far reach the amount. An alert never
stops anything.

The capacity limit caps compute; it is not set here. Request a higher limit:

    blossom capacity:limit_request:create --units 16 --reason "Two more Apps"
