Sign-in rules

Sign-in rules decide whether and how a user can sign in to the Prisma Browser. They are the first policy a session is evaluated against. Rules are evaluated top to bottom within their sections; the first matching rule wins. See Policy overview for concepts shared across all policy types (scope, sections, positions, publishing).

Base path: /seb-api/v1/policy/sign-in.

Mandatory fields

FieldRequiredNotes
nameYes1-300 characters
modeYesactive or disabled (case-insensitive)
actionYesallow, block, or prompt
scopeNo (recommended)Who the rule applies to. Omitting it applies the rule to everyone.
descriptionNoUp to 300 characters
positioningNoWhere to place the new rule (section + position)

A sign-in rule's only behavior is its action: let the user in (allow), keep them out (block), or make them confirm before continuing (prompt). There are no controls on sign-in rules.

Response

The resolved rule: the fields you sent, every server-side default filled in, and the new id.

The rule is created in the draft. Publish to enforce it (see Draft and publish).

Sections

Sign-in sections are created with POST /seb-api/v1/policy/sign-in/sections (only name is required) and ordered with the positions endpoints.
