The rule configuration is preserved. OAuth apps require the `cases_write` authorization [scope](https://docs.datadoghq.com/api/latest/scopes.md#case-management) to access this endpoint. ### Arguments #### Path Parameters | Name | Type | Description | | ---------------------------- | ------ | ------------------------------------------------------- | | project_id [*required*] | string | The UUID of the project that owns the automation rules. | | rule_id [*required*] | string | The UUID of the automation rule. | ### Response {% tab title="200" %} OK {% tab title="Model" %} Response containing a single automation rule. | Parent field | Field | Type | Description | | ------------- | ---------------------------- | --------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | | data [*required*] | object | An automation rule that executes an action (such as running a Datadog workflow or assigning an AI agent) when a specified case event occurs within a project. | | data | attributes [*required*] | object | Core attributes of an automation rule, including its name, trigger condition, action to execute, and current state. | | attributes | action [*required*] | object | Defines what happens when the rule triggers. Combines an action type with action-specific configuration data. | | action | data [*required*] | object | Configuration for the action to execute, dependent on the action type. | | data | agent_type | string | The type of AI agent to assign. Required when the action type is `assign_agent`. | | data | assigned_agent_id | string | The identifier of the AI agent to assign to the case. Required when the action type is `assign_agent`. | | data | handle | string | The handle of the Datadog workflow to execute. Required when the action type is `execute_workflow`. | | action | type [*required*] | enum | The type of automated action to perform when the rule triggers. `execute_workflow` runs a Datadog workflow; `assign_agent` assigns an AI agent to the case. Allowed enum values: `execute_workflow,assign_agent` | | attributes | created_at [*required*] | date-time | Timestamp when the automation rule was created. | | attributes | modified_at | date-time | Timestamp when the automation rule was last modified. | | attributes | name [*required*] | string | A human-readable name for the automation rule, used to identify the rule in the UI and API responses. | | attributes | state [*required*] | enum | Whether the automation rule is active. Enabled rules trigger on matching case events; disabled rules are inactive but preserve their configuration. Allowed enum values: `ENABLED,DISABLED` | | attributes | trigger [*required*] | object | Defines when the rule activates. Combines a trigger type (the case event to listen for) with optional trigger data (conditions that narrow when the trigger fires). | | trigger | data | object | Additional configuration for the trigger, dependent on the trigger type. For `status_transitioned` triggers, specify `from_status_name` and `to_status_name`. For `attribute_value_changed` triggers, specify `field` and `change_type`. | | data | approval_type | string | The approval outcome to match. Used with `case_review_approved` triggers. | | data | change_type | string | The kind of attribute change to match. Allowed values: `VALUE_ADDED`, `VALUE_DELETED`, `ANY_CHANGES`. Used with `attribute_value_changed` triggers. | | data | field | string | The case attribute field name to monitor for changes. Used with `attribute_value_changed` triggers. | | data | from_status_name | string | The originating status name. Used with `status_transitioned` triggers to match transitions from this status. | | data | to_status_name | string | The destination status name. Used with `status_transitioned` triggers to match transitions to this status. | | trigger | type [*required*] | enum | The case event that activates the automation rule. Allowed enum values: `case_created,status_transitioned,attribute_value_changed,event_correlation_signal_correlated,case_review_approved,comment_added` | | data | id [*required*] | string | Automation rule identifier. | | data | relationships | object | Related resources for the automation rule, including the users who created and last modified it. | | relationships | created_by | object | Relationship to user. | | created_by | data [*required*] | object | Relationship to user object. | | data | id [*required*] | string | A unique identifier that represents the user. | | data | type [*required*] | enum | User resource type. Allowed enum values: `user` | | relationships | modified_by | object | Relationship to user. | | modified_by | data [*required*] | object | Relationship to user object. | | data | id [*required*] | string | A unique identifier that represents the user. | | data | type [*required*] | enum | User resource type. Allowed enum values: `user` | | data | type [*required*] | enum | JSON:API resource type for case automation rules. Allowed enum values: `rule` | {% /tab %} {% tab title="Example" %} ```json { "data": { "attributes": { "action": { "data": { "agent_type": "string", "assigned_agent_id": "string", "handle": "workflow-handle-123" }, "type": "execute_workflow" }, "created_at": "2024-01-01T00:00:00.000Z", "modified_at": "2019-09-19T10:00:00.000Z", "name": "Auto-assign workflow", "state": "ENABLED", "trigger": { "data": { "approval_type": "string", "change_type": "string", "field": "string", "from_status_name": "string", "to_status_name": "string" }, "type": "case_created" } }, "id": "e6773723-fe58-49ff-9975-dff00f14e28d", "relationships": { "created_by": { "data": { "id": "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000", "type": "user" } }, "modified_by": { "data": { "id": "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000", "type": "user" } } }, "type": "rule" } } ``` {% /tab %} {% /tab %} {% tab title="400" %} Bad Request {% tab title="Model" %} API error response. | Field | Type | Description | | ------------------------ | -------- | ----------------- | | errors [*required*] | [string] | A list of errors. | {% /tab %} {% tab title="Example" %} ```json { "errors": [ "Bad Request" ] } ``` {% /tab %} {% /tab %} {% tab title="401" %} Unauthorized {% tab title="Model" %} API error response. | Field | Type | Description | | ------------------------ | -------- | ----------------- | | errors [*required*] | [string] | A list of errors. | {% /tab %} {% tab title="Example" %} ```json { "errors": [ "Bad Request" ] } ``` {% /tab %} {% /tab %} {% tab title="403" %} Forbidden {% tab title="Model" %} API error response. | Field | Type | Description | | ------------------------ | -------- | ----------------- | | errors [*required*] | [string] | A list of errors. | {% /tab %} {% tab title="Example" %} ```json { "errors": [ "Bad Request" ] } ``` {% /tab %} {% /tab %} {% tab title="404" %} Not Found {% tab title="Model" %} API error response. | Field | Type | Description | | ------------------------ | -------- | ----------------- | | errors [*required*] | [string] | A list of errors. | {% /tab %} {% tab title="Example" %} ```json { "errors": [ "Bad Request" ] } ``` {% /tab %} {% /tab %} {% tab title="429" %} Too many requests {% tab title="Model" %} API error response. | Field | Type | Description | | ------------------------ | -------- | ----------------- | | errors [*required*] | [string] | A list of errors. | {% /tab %} {% tab title="Example" %} ```json { "errors": [ "Bad Request" ] } ``` {% /tab %} {% /tab %} ### Code Example ##### \# Path parameters export project_id="e555e290-ed65-49bd-ae18-8acbfcf18db7" export rule_id="e6773723-fe58-49ff-9975-dff00f14e28d" \# Curl command curl -X POST "https://api.datadoghq.com/api/v2/cases/projects/${project_id}/rules/${rule_id}/disable" \ -H "Accept: application/json" \ -H "DD-API-KEY: ${DD_API_KEY}" \ -H "DD-APPLICATION-KEY: ${DD_APP_KEY}" ##### ```python """ Disable an automation rule returns "OK" response """ from datadog_api_client import ApiClient, Configuration from datadog_api_client.v2.api.case_management_api import CaseManagementApi configuration = Configuration() configuration.unstable_operations["disable_case_automation_rule"] = True with ApiClient(configuration) as api_client: api_instance = CaseManagementApi(api_client) response = api_instance.disable_case_automation_rule( project_id="project_id", rule_id="rule_id", ) print(response) ``` #### Instructions First [install the library and its dependencies](https://docs.datadoghq.com/api/latest.md?code-lang=python) and then save the example to `example.py` and run following commands: DD_SITE="datadoghq.com" DD_API_KEY="" DD_APP_KEY="" python3 "example.py" ##### ```ruby #
