Block rules

Kill-switch and forced-update rules evaluated on every /session call.

A block rule matches a set of devices and picks an action: block, force_update, or warn. The SDK caches the result offline.

DashboardApps → your app → Block rules → New rule

Steps

  • 1. Pick a target segment (start with an internal-only tag).
  • 2. Choose action + human message.
  • 3. Save. The next /session for a matching device returns the block.
  • 4. Widen the segment only after the internal segment behaves correctly.
Heads up
Ramp block rules like flags — start with an internal segment before hitting everyone.
Verify it
  • A device in the internal segment sees the block after resuming the app.
  • A device outside the segment sees no change.
