Hi,

I’m building an api with sls and I need to set for each method the throttling and burst limit. Is there a way to do that with sls?

Thank you

I can’t see an issue for this in [the project’s GitHub](https://github.com/serverless/serverless/issues), maybe raise a feature request?

Given the throttle settings [are supported in CFN](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/aws-resource-apigateway-usageplan.html) this shouldn’t be too hard to implement.
