+# Update user quota
+
+The `scanuserquota` example script shows how to use the SFTPGo REST API to update the users' quota.
+
+The stored quota may be incorrect for several reasons, such as an unexpected shutdown while uploading files, temporary provider failures, files copied outside of SFTPGo, and so on.
+
+A quota scan updates the number of files and their total size for the specified user and the virtual folders, if any, included in his quota.
+
+If you want to track quotas, a scheduled quota scan is recommended. You could use this example as a starting point.
+
+The script is written in Python and has the following requirements:
+
+- python3 or python2
+- python [Requests](https://requests.readthedocs.io/en/master/) module
+
+The provided example tries to connect to an SFTPGo instance running on `127.0.0.1:8080` using the following credentials:
+
+- username: `admin`
+- password: `password`
+
+Please edit the script according to your needs.
