You can create cooldown policies via the Cloudsmith API, Terraform provider, and web app.

## Getting started

This feature is available for Ultra and Enterprise customers using policy management with policy as code.

Cooldown policies are now supported for npm, Python, Go, Maven, NuGet, Conda, and Docker. For more information about using cooldown policies, see [our documentation](https://docs.cloudsmith.com/supply-chain-security/epm/cooldown-policy).
