Filter rules by status

    • All
    • Active
    • Inactive
    • Scheduled

Find search rules by name

Begin typing the name of the rule, or any word in the rule name.
Search finds the matching rule(s) as you type. The string of matching characters are highlighted in the name of each rule found.
