## Request body

- GatewayUserUsageLimitIncreaseRequest: UserUsageLimitIncreaseRequest is a member's request to raise their per-user serverless cap; an admin approves (applies the override) or rejects it. Full history is kept: one row per request.
  - `name` string
  - `userId` string, required: The user the request is for. Self-serve only: a member may request only for themselves, so this is also the requester.

    - `currencyCode` string: The three-letter currency code defined in ISO 4217.
    - `units` string, int64: The whole units of the amount. For example if `currencyCode` is `"USD"`, then 1 unit is one US dollar.

If `units` is zero, `nanos` can be positive, zero, or negative. If `units` is negative, `nanos` must be negative or zero. For example $-1.75 is represented as `units`=-1 and `nanos`=-750,000,000.
