Delete a rule object

Prev Next

Make sure the rule object is not used in any ignore rule rules or other features.

You can delete a rule object only at the admin domain where it was created.

Note

You cannot edit or delete any default rule object. You can edit or delete custom rule objects only at the admin domain where they were created.

  1. In the Rule Objects page, locate the rule object that you want to delete.

    To filter the list, select Custom Objects Only and select the corresponding rule object type from the object type drop-down.

  2. Make sure the Editable here field displays Yes for the rule object you want to delete. Then select the rule object and click GUID-9A719AD5-F6BE-4CD4-9311-CC6655DF9B70-low.png.

    If the Editable here field displays No, the rule object belongs to a parent admin domain and you will only be able to delete it within that domain.

  3. Click OK to confirm deletion.

    The rule object is permanently removed from that domain and does not show up in the list.
