Add a resource rule

Building a resource graph involves several steps, depending on the type of resource rule you want to create. If you simply want the most basic resource rule that has Skip Password for first-factor authentication and default second-factor, just add the resource rule and the basic template is configured with these settings.

Note: Before you begin, review the Terminology and Tips section. See Create resource rules.

The following sections describe how to configure elements of a resource rule. Click the + plus symbol to see more details, or click the link to move the applicable page.
