- Bulk upload users when creating or editing rules, reducing manual effort when monitoring larger groups of users.
- Delete rules directly from the management experience to simplify rule maintenance and cleanup.
These enhancements are designed to streamline administration of Real-Time Alerting rules and improve operational efficiency.
