You can use curl and upload a rule text file.

Sounds great
Naming of Textfile Just rules1.txt?
Thanks

Yep, and make sure you have the latest and greatest version.

Hi I am struggling with the curl command

do you have an example please?

I assume it is a curl -u upload

Thanks thomas

Hi

could yo upost a template uploading rules?

It is not working for me.

Thanks T

Uploading rules files using curl appears to be partially broken. The main issue is that it will only work if the file to be uploaded is already named in the file system.

Try this:
1. Go to the rules tab and choose the rule set you wish to update. If it does not exist then this action will create a blank rule file in SPIFFS with the rulesX.txt naming convention. If there is already a rule file present then that is fine too.

2. Close the rules tab (exit the rules page). This is mandatory! Failure to do this will cause rules1.txt to be copied to the currently selected rules page when you use curl. {this bug caused me a lot of grief}

3. Use curl to submit the new ruleX.txt file, using this format: note: Change FULL_PATH_TO_RULES\rules2.txt and IP_ADDRESS with your information.
