Set transaction rules

You need transaction rules to sign transactions

Updated over 2 months ago

Every transaction initiated from a Utila wallet is evaluated against your defined set of transaction policy rules. These rules are applied in order of priority, from top to bottom. The first rule that matches a transaction is the one that determines its outcome. For more details see the Governance section.

If there’s no match between a rule and a given transaction, the transaction is automatically rejected.

Rule Actions:

  • Deny: The transaction is rejected

  • Requires approval: The transaction is subject to approval by a predefined threshold of approvers. Eligible signers are able to sign the transaction once the approval threshold is met.

  • Allow: Eligible users are able to sign the transaction with no additional approvals required

To define a transaction policy or add a rule to an existing policy, go to Vault Settings > Transaction policy, then click Manage Policy.

For more details on how to add a transaction rule, see the article Edit the transaction policy for a vault. This article also covers changing the rule's priority and deleting a rule.

The transfer page shows the following if you don't have a transaction policy in place. Click Go to Transaction Policy to create your rules.
