Edit, pause or delete a rule

Each rule on the Rules page shows its event type, name, a short summary of its filters and the icons of the channels it sends to. On the right are a switch, a pencil and a trash icon.

Edit a rule

1. Click the pencil icon.
2. Change what you need: event type, filters, destinations or name.
3. Click Save rule.

Changes apply to events that arrive from then on. Alerts already sent aren't sent again.

Changing the event type clears the filters, because each type has its own.

Pause a rule

Turn the switch off. The rule keeps its settings but sends nothing until you turn it back on. Events that arrive while it's off are not sent later.

A rule needs at least one channel to be turned on. If it has none, edit it and choose one under Destinations first.

Delete a rule

Click the trash icon. The rule is deleted right away, with no confirmation, and can't be restored. To keep a rule for later, pause it instead.

Labels you may see on a rule

• channel removed: the rule was paused because the only channel it sent to was removed. Edit it, choose another channel and turn it back on. See Remove or replace a channel.
• plan changed · upgrade: the rule was paused when your plan changed from Pro to Free, because it uses a Pro feature or is over the Free limit of 3 rules. See Update your card, view invoices or cancel.
• Watchlist (deleted) in the filter summary: the watchlist the rule uses was deleted, so the rule matches nothing. Edit it and pick another watchlist or symbols. See Use watchlists.
