Policies

Learn how to group your automation rules into policies for a single point of control.

Group automation rules into policies to simplify the management of these rules by providing a single point of control. This makes it easier to enable, disable, or modify multiple rules at once. Additionally, Enterprise users are able to use those policies to evaluate packages in Open Source Select with Start Left Policies.
