Wizard Rule

The Rule Wizard provides an easy-to-use interface for creating a rule, including selecting topics, conditions, and responses.

Rules created using the Rule Wizard cannot be edited in Advanced Mode and vice versa. However, a wizard rule can be converted to an advanced rule or template.

The Rule Wizard is divided into three steps that correspond to the WHEN, WITH, and THEN statements in DRQL. But because the syntax is hidden when using the Rule Wizard, it does not require knowledge of DRQL.

Wizard rules do not support nested analytics. An example of a nested analytic is where you use the sum() analytic inside the geoInsideArea() analytic.

To use nested analytics, you can do two things:

In the Wizard mode, create two conditions. The first performs the inner analytic (for example, sum()) and assigns to a temporary variable using the AS clause. The second condition is the outer analytic that uses the AS temp variable name.

Use the Advanced Mode, as long as the outer analytic itself supports an inner analytic.

The rule wizard is divided into three steps:

In the first step, you select the event topics, how many events to evaluate for each topic, and a time frame in which to evaluate all of the events for the topics you select.

In the second step, you define the conditions for your rule. You can define one, multiple, or no conditions.

In the third step, you define your responses. At least one active response must be available in RulePoint before using the Rule Wizard.

In the fourth step, you decide whether or not you want parallel processing for the rule. Parallel processing is enabled by default.

In the fifth step, you specify execution settings.

The comparison of string literals and topic property string values are case sensitive. For example, when evaluating a rule, "xyz" does not equal "XYZ."
