# POST /v5/position/set-risk-limit is deprecated

Bybit API deprecated POST /v5/position/set-risk-limit without giving a shutdown date yet.

The endpoint POST /v5/position/set-risk-limit was deprecated on March 12, 2024, without a shutdown date. Calls to this endpoint will fail. The change applies because auto risk limit has launched.

## What to use instead

Stop calling it: risk limits are now adjusted automatically.

## Bybit API's words

> Set Risk Limit [Deprecate] - Since auto risk limit has been launched, it is meaningless to use this API
