# PUT Threshold

The PUT method in Threshold API is used to set the threshold values for attack types. If you set the mode to `system`, the user set values are dropped. If you move the mode back to `user`, you would need to configure the threshold values again. For more information on manually setting threshold values, see [Manually set thresholds](pingintelligence_tune_thresholds_false_positives.html#manually_set_thresholds).

**Method**: PUT

**URL:**: `/v4/abs/attack/threshold`

|                | **Header** | **Value**  |
| -------------- | ---------- | ---------- |
| **Access Key** | `x-abs-ak` | `<string>` |
| **Secret Key** | `x-abs-sk` | `<string>` |

**Sample input for an API**

```json
{
 "api_name" : "atmapp",
  "mode": "system",
 "ioc_threshold": [
 {
 "type": "api_memory_post",
 "variable": "A",

 },
 {
 "type": "api_memory_put",
 "variable": "B"
 }
 ]
}
```

The following is the response when the threshold values are set:

```json
{
    "status_code": "SUCCESS",
    "message": "attack threshold updated"
}
```

**Sample input for across API**:

```json
{
 "id":"18",
  "mode": "user",
 "ioc_threshold": [
{
     "type": "extended_probing_replay_cookie",
     "variable": "A",
     "tn": "25",
     "tx": "28"
   },{
     "type": "extended_probing_replay_cookie",
     "variable": "B",
     "tn": "3",
     "tx": "4"
   }
]
}
```

The following is the response when the threshold values are set:

```json
{
    "status_code": "SUCCESS",
    "message": "attack threshold updated"
}
```
