Editing a rule set
A rule set includes all of the rules for a dynamic content region, the order of the rules, and the logic. You can create a reusable rule set by saving a rule set that you created for a dynamic content region in a campaign. You can also create a rule set by copying a rule set contained in a folder.
After you create a rule set, you can edit it.
Changing a rule set or its rules does not impact campaigns that imported the rule set.
To edit a rule set:
- Navigate to
Folders.
- Locate the rule set that you want to edit.
To locate rule sets more easily, use the Contents filter and select Dynamic Content Rules. This will display only the rule sets in the selected folder.
- Click on
then select Edit.
- Use the Rule set editor to edit the rule set.
You can add a new rule, create a new rule by copying a rule, edit existing rules, reorder the rules, or delete rules from the rule set.
- When you are done editing the rule set, click Save and exit. If you want to close the Rule set editor without saving your changes, click the drop-down arrow on the Save button and choose Discard changes.
