Initiate Rule Chain based on S3 Import

Related products: None

Is it possible to create a rule chain that is triggered by a S3 Import? I want to run a CTA that only runs right after a certain S3 Rule has run. I’m sure I can do this using ‘Import Date’ fields but being able to create a rule chain would be much easier.

 

Thanks!

Hi Shane,

 

One question, say you have 3 rules in a rule chain in the following order

  1. Rule 1
  2. Rule 2
  3. Rule 3

If we make Rule 1 trigger off S3 file, Rule 2, 3 follow the Rule 1, would that solve your problem?

Hi Rakesh,

The problem is that Rule 1 can not be triggered off a S3 file if it is attached to a Rule Chain. This my main obstacle. Any workarounds for this would be appreciated.


@shane_mccoy we have added this to our product backlog, changing this to an idea post for better visibility.

I don’t have any current use-cases for this but I can see it useful for transitioning between rule structures/refactoring (IE 1 bionic rule vs rule chains)
