The 

`run`

• Rules are the smallest building block for logic, it is important to remember that this method should be implemented to perform 1 simple task
• You may not need all of these steps within your Rule. Some rules produce an action without a condition. Some rules do not need to query additional data. Make sure your Rule is as lean as possible, and simple to read.
• The Rubix Plugin SDK provides a useful Util class to facilitate validation: RuleUtils
• You can retrieve the data by using Context / Entity
• Typically, a Rule will produce an output action.

This page describes the best practice testing approaches for rules and plugins.

• As per standard industry practices, rules should be tested as part of the development cycle, on the developer's local machine.
• Testing on Sandbox after local testing has been completed.

Rule Actions are the single output of a Rule.

Rules do not perform actions directly. Rather, they inform the Workflow Engine what it should do as a result of the rule execution. The Workflow Engine interprets the specific Action produced by the Rule and handles it appropriately.

Most Actions are queued internally within the Workflow Engine and executed at the end of the current process.

• There are 4 types of Actions available to produce from a Rule:

  • `SendEventAction`

  • `MutateAction`

  • `WebhookAction`

  • `LogAction`

Accessing the Workflow Builder

• The Workflow Builder UI is accessible through the Admin Console (not available on Fluent OMS).
•  In order to add or edit an existing WF from the UI, you would need to have the right permissions.

Character escaping and unescaping are crucial for data integrity and security in UX frameworks. This document focuses on the Mustache.js templating engine, which escapes HTML by default to prevent XSS attacks. When special characters like ampersands need to be displayed, the framework offers unescaping methods to ensure correct and secure rendering.

This overview highlights the significance of proper value escaping and the techniques for accurately rendering special characters within the UX framework.

• Mustache.js Templating: The UX framework utilizes mustache.js for templating, which automatically escapes HTML characters. This is important for preventing XSS (Cross-Site Scripting) attacks and ensuring data is displayed as intended.
• Unescaping Variables: To display special characters properly, such as ampersands, you must unescape variables using triple mustaches, e.g.,

  `{{{variable}}}`

  , or the

  `&`

  symbol in the variable tag, e.g.,

  `{{&variable}}`

  .
• Correct Display of Values: Escaping or unescaping variables correctly is crucial for the accurate representation of data within the UX. This ensures that special characters are rendered as intended, maintaining the integrity of the information displayed to users.
