# QueryLimitConstraint class
A `QueryLimitConstraint` is used to limit the number of documents returned by a Firestore query. `QueryLimitConstraint`<!-- -->s are created by invoking [limit()](./firestore_.md#limit_ec46c78) or [limitToLast()](./firestore_.md#limittolast_ec46c78) and can then be passed to [query()](./firestore_.md#query_9f7b0f4) to create a new query instance that also contains this `QueryLimitConstraint`<!-- -->.

export declare class QueryLimitConstraint extends QueryConstraint
