Configuring Rule Conditions
Learn how to set conditions for a rule. Conditions act as a filter, ensuring the rule's actions only execute when specific criteria are met.
What are Rule Conditions?
Conditions are the "IF" part of a rule's logic. After a rule is triggered, the system evaluates its conditions. If the conditions are met (i.e., they are true), the rule's actions will be executed. If they are not met, the rule stops and no actions are performed.
How to Configure Conditions
From the Rule Editor, click the EDIT CONDITIONS button. This opens the Edit Conditions modal, where you can build the logic for your rule. You can add multiple conditions of different types.

Combining Multiple Conditions
If you add more than one condition, you must specify how they should be evaluated together:
- Match all conditions: An "AND" operator. The rule will only run if every single condition is true.
- Match any condition: An "OR" operator. The rule will run if at least one of the conditions is true.
