# Simple Rules

## Overview

Use these API operations to interact with [rules](/detections/rules.md) created as [Simple Detections in the CLI workflow](/detections/rules/writing-simple-detections.md) or in the Panther Console's [Simple Detection Builder](/detections/rules/simple-detection-builder.md).

{% hint style="info" %}
The simple rule API entity is only applicable to rules that are [Simple Detections](/detections.md#simple-detections). To interact with rules created in [Python](/detections/rules/python.md), see [Rules](/panther-developer-workflows/api/rest/rules.md).
{% endhint %}

To call the API, see the [How to use the Panther REST API](/panther-developer-workflows/api/rest.md#how-to-use-the-panther-rest-api) instructions—including [directions for how to invoke it directly from this documentation page](/panther-developer-workflows/api/rest.md#step-3-invoke-the-panther-rest-api).

## Required permissions

* For `GET` operations, your API token must have the `View Rules` permission.
* For `POST`, `PUT`, and `DELETE` operations, your API token must have the `Manage Rules` permission.

## Operations

{% hint style="info" %}
The below API endpoints are for Simple Detections only. To interact with other detection types, see their pages: [Python-based rules](https://docs.panther.com/panther-developer-workflows/api/rest/rules), [Scheduled Rules](https://docs.panther.com/panther-developer-workflows/api/rest/scheduled-rules), and [cloud policies](https://docs.panther.com/panther-developer-workflows/api/rest/policies).

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.panther.com/panther-developer-workflows/api/rest/simple-rules.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
