Manage flags
Information on how to manage flags in Optimizely Feature Experimentation.
The Flags dashboard gives you a view of what is happening to a flag and what rules are implemented for the flag. A ruleset is the collection of rules associated with a flag. See New flag and rule lifecycle management FAQs for information.
Rulesets can be in one of the following states:
- Draft – Flag recently created and never enabled.
- Running – Flag is enabled and running.
- Paused – Flag was previously turned on and now paused with any rules not running or delivered to new users.
Each newly created ruleset (which includes the flag's environment and rules) starts in Draft status.
