Rules vs Routines

[h0ckeysk8er (Bruce Pinsky)]

I have several routines currently installed in my hub. Whereas there’s a UI that helps you create a routine, the documentation on the format of a rule is surely lacking today. It’s unfortunate that there’s no ability to capture an existing routine in JSON format so that you can refine it as a rule.

For people creating rules, is it a question of guessing the syntax or is there a better way?

Thanks

The Rules API is documented here

and some sample rules are documented here

And rather than trying to use a tool like Postman to create and manage your rules, there is an easier interface available via the API Browser+ from @TAustin.
