Creates a targeting rule on the resolved flag in the resolved environment.

Requires at least Member. Re-fetches via GetTargetingRuleQuery using the id returned from CreateTargetingRuleCommand so the response reflects exactly what was persisted (e.g. server-assigned priority and condition/group ids).

string

Why you are making this change, recorded in the audit log. Percent-encoded UTF-8 (encode it the way encodeURIComponent does); at most 2048 characters after decoding. Required when the target environment — or, for project-wide changes, any environment in the project — requires a change reason; without one the request is refused with 422 change_reason_required.

Request body for POST .../rules. The Application-side CreateTargetingRuleDto/CreateConditionGroupDto/CreateConditionDto all take their Operator as a bare string, re-parsed CASE-SENSITIVELY inside CreateTargetingRuleCommandHandler — FlagTargetingController’s mapping helpers validate every operator against the enum’s member-name allowlist AND canonicalize the casing (e.g. "in" → "In") before building the command DTO, so a valid case-insensitive match never trips the handler’s strict re-parse.

bucketBy

Context attribute the rollout hashes on (default user_id; userId is accepted as an alias). A context without it skips this rule, even at 100%. Changing it reshuffles who is in the rollout. A fixed rule (no rolloutPercentage) never hashes and always stores user_id. When omitted on PUT .../targeting, a rollout keeps the value of the existing rollout it edits: the existing rule with the same targeting, told apart from others with that targeting by its variation, then its description, then its position. Any other rule gets user_id. The request is refused with 400 until it sends bucketBy for a rollout whose edited rule it can’t tell when the answer changes its attribute: the rollout shares only its targeting with several rules that bucket differently, or it matches no existing rule while the request removes a rollout bucketed by another attribute. On create, omitting it gives user_id.

Media type application/json

A single targeting rule, returned by GET .../rules/{ruleId}, POST .../rules (201 body), and nested within PublicTargetingConfigResponse. Maps 1:1 onto TargetingRuleDto, dropping nothing — every field on the Application DTO is part of the public contract.

Array<object>

A condition group within a PublicTargetingRuleResponse. Maps 1:1 onto ConditionGroupDto. Operator is a bare wire string naming one of the ConditionGroupOperator members ("And"/"Or") — groups are ANDed together at the rule level; within a group, its conditions combine using this operator.

Capability hints: which operations the authenticated caller may perform on this resource, each with allowed + optional reason. Computed from the caller’s role and the resource’s state. Injected at runtime; safe to ignore. Present only on top-level resource responses — nested occurrences (e.g. a rule inside a targeting-config response) do not carry it.

X-RateLimit-Limit

The request is malformed, or it carries an If-Match header, which this endpoint can’t evaluate. Send no If-Match, or *.

Media type application/json

The frozen public-API error contract. error codes are stable snake_case strings. Wire keys are frozen snake_case too (error, message, docs_url, fields, retry_after) — the global camelCase naming policy would otherwise emit docsUrl/retryAfter, breaking the published spec. !:JsonPropertyName always wins over the policy, so these are pinned explicitly rather than relying on the property names already being lowercase for the single-word ones. did_you_mean, next_actions and connection_id are ADDITIVE optional keys (null → omitted via the global DefaultIgnoreCondition = WhenWritingNull), so pre-existing error bodies are byte-for-byte unchanged when they’re absent.

connection_id is present only on the sso_required error: the organization requires single sign-on, and this credential didn’t come through its identity provider. connection_id identifies which SSO connection to sign in with. plan_limit is present only on the plan_limit_reached error: which plan cap the request would have exceeded, so a client can branch on it without parsing message.
