# Create a discussion comment (Legacy)

From **GitHub v3 REST API**.

`POST /teams/{team_id}/discussions/{discussion_number}/comments`

**Deprecated.**

**Deprecation Notice:** This endpoint route is deprecated and will be removed from the Teams API. We recommend migrating your existing code to use the new [Create a discussion comment](https://docs.github.com/enterprise-server@3.0/rest/reference/teams#create-a-discussion-comment) endpoint.

Creates a new comment on a team discussion. OAuth access tokens require the `write:discussion` [scope](https://docs.github.com/enterprise-server@3.0/apps/building-oauth-apps/understanding-scopes-for-oauth-apps/).

This endpoint triggers [notifications](https://docs.github.com/en/github/managing-subscriptions-and-notifications-on-github/about-notifications). Creating content too quickly using this endpoint may result in secondary rate limiting. See "[Secondary rate limits](https://docs.github.com/enterprise-server@3.0/rest/overview/resources-in-the-rest-api#secondary-rate-limits)" and "[Dealing with secondary rate limits](https://docs.github.com/enterprise-server@3.0/rest/guides/best-practices-for-integrators#dealing-with-secondary-rate-limits)" for details.
