Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.
I am at a loss trying to find the Rules UI in Drupal 7.x. I have already checked:
/admin/config
but I can't find anything having to do with rules.
I have checked the Actions and Triggers pages as well thinking maybe there was a link there I was not aware of.
Am I missing something?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

dasjohi,
the rules ui resides at admin/config/workflow/rules
double check if you did enable the module "Rules UI" which is separate from "Rules" core

alanom CreditAttribution: alanom commentedThe documentation page, Introduction to Rules (http://drupal.org/node/298480), should say where to find the Rules UI. It's the first thing someone using the module who is new to it will need to know, so it should be documented.
(ideally it should also say that if it isn't under admin > config > workflow, clear caches)

rootworkI've updated the documentation, since I just ran into this too. Maybe someone could take a look and see if anything needs to be added?
I also checked the module page for a "Configure" link from Rules UI's entry and didn't see one. I now see the "Configure" link appears on the Rules module itself (presumably only if Rules UI is enabled). Would it be worth adding a "Configure" link on the Rules UI entry as well?

caspervoogt CreditAttribution: caspervoogt commentedyou also need to make sure to set permissions so Administrator role users have permission to administer Rules.
Comment #12
rootworkYeah that wasn't the issue for me, I was using it as uid1. I would argue it would be helpful to admins to add a "Configure" link to the Rules UI entry on the module page.

Pere OrgaPatch attached adds
admin/config/workflow/rules
link to the Rules UI module in the module list.Comment #14
TR CreditAttribution: TR commentedAlmost four years later and the patch still applies!
Adding a configure link to the Rules UI module doesn't harm anything, and if it helps even 1 person find the UI then it's an improvement. Let's get this committed!

TR CreditAttribution: TR commentedThis is already fixed in Rules 8.x-3.x, so it only has to be fixed in 7.x-2.x.
