Set banner click capping

Creates or replaces the click capping rule for a banner, limiting how many clicks are counted within a time window.

Reference

POST https://YOUR-NETWORK-DOMAIN/rest-api/banner/{bannerId}/click-capping/set.do

Creates or replaces the click capping rule for a banner, limiting how many clicks are counted within a time window. If a capping rule already exists for the given subject type, it is updated in place; otherwise a new rule is created. The capping is automatically enabled after this call. Requires UPDATE permission and the MANAGE_CAPPING_AND_LIMITATIONS privilege; using IP or LES_IP subjects requires additional permissions.
