Edit delegated rules

User Experience

Where do I find all of the delegated rules for my application so that I can go back into them later and edit details, such as the below.

  • Access group(s) that can view the delegated items
  • “Title” of each delegated rule
  • “Detailed Description” of each delegated rule.

An example need for this would be: The person who setup the delegation had a typo in the “Title” or “Detailed Description”, and we simply need to update them for any applicable delegated rules.

@JonW6369 I think you are looking for the System-User-MyRules instance created when you delegate a rule.

Remember that delegation is just making a rule favorite for the end user.

Just search “System-User-MyRules” in the App panel, click in the class to view the instances (see attachment) and there should be your instance for delegation rules by access groups.

  • The access group is part of the name of the System-User-MyRules instance
  • The title is just the label of the delegated rule
  • The description is on the “Anchor Text” column

See the attachments for references of favorite rules.

Reference: Favorites (System-User-MyRules)

@Deivit this is EXACTLY what I was looking for! THANK YOU so much for the clear explanation and for the attachments.

@JonW6369 Sorry, I think I made a mistake. The description is not in the Anchor Text column, actually it doesn’t show in the table. You can edit the description through obj- methods or adding the .pyDescription column (privately) to the table and changing the value. But I think is easier to remove the row and re-delegating the rule with the new description.
