Update a drop rule

PUT
/domains/{domain}/rules/drop/{ruleId}
curl --request PUT \
--url https://api.nsin.ir/domains/example.com/rules/drop/1 \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer <token>' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{ "record_id": 1, "record_ids": [ 1 ], "enabled": true, "priority": 100, "host_pattern": "example", "host_match_type": "", "action_mode": "enforce", "path_match_type": "wildcard", "path_includes": [ "example" ], "path_excludes": [ "example" ], "country_match_type": "include", "countries": [ "example" ] }'

Partial update — omitted fields keep their current value. Requires rules.edit.

domain
required
string

The domain name (for example example.com) — not a numeric id.

Example
example.com
ruleId
required
integer

Numeric id of the rule.

Media type application/json
object
record_id

Deprecated single-record scope. Prefer record_ids.

integer
nullable
record_ids

Scope the rule to these proxied records. Omit or send an empty array for a zone-wide rule. Every id must belong to this domain.

Array<integer>
enabled
boolean
default: true
priority
integer
default: 100
host_pattern
string
host_match_type

How host_pattern is matched. The empty string means “no host filter”, and is the only valid value when host_pattern is empty — the two fields are set and cleared together.

string
Allowed values: "" exact wildcard regex
action_mode
  • enforce — the rule acts (block, redirect, challenge, …).
  • dry_run — the rule matches and is logged as “would have acted”, but the request reaches the origin unchanged. Use it to test a rule safely.

Not every rule type honours this; cache ignores it.

string
Allowed values: enforce dry_run
path_match_type

How path_includes and path_excludes are interpreted.

string
Allowed values: wildcard regex
path_includes

Paths the rule applies to. Defaults to ["/*"] — everything.

Array<string>
path_excludes

Paths carved back out of path_includes.

Array<string>
country_match_type

Whether countries is the set that IS dropped (include) or the only set that is NOT dropped (exclude).

string
Allowed values: include exclude
countries

ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country codes. Empty means no country filter.

Array<string>

The updated rule.

Media type application/json
object
id
integer
domain_id
integer
record_id

Deprecated single-record scope. Prefer record_ids. Absent for zone-wide rules.

integer
record_ids

The proxied DNS records this rule applies to. Empty or absent means zone-wide — every proxied record of the domain.

Array<integer>
type
string
Allowed values: cache drop redirect rewrite waf captcha rate_limit bot_route origin_pool origin_route fingerprint error_page
enabled
boolean
priority

Evaluation order; lower runs first. Defaults to 100.

integer
host_pattern

Optional hostname filter. Empty means the rule is not host-scoped.

string
host_match_type

How host_pattern is matched. The empty string means “no host filter”, and is the only valid value when host_pattern is empty — the two fields are set and cleared together.
