Account admins and owners can manage automation rules. On Enterprise accounts, these rights can be revoked from admins.
You can edit, delete, or disable automation rules as needed. To manage these rules at the Account, Space, or Custom item type level, switch to the respective settings for Account, Space, or Custom item type.
If a rule is automatically disabled due to its conditions no longer being operable (e.g., a deleted workflow status or destination folder), you'll need to edit it before enabling it again.
If you no longer need an automation rule to work, you can disable it instead of deleting it in case you might need to enable it again later. Wrike can also automatically disable some rules if their conditions are no longer applicable. You can manually edit and enable these rules.
Space admins can manage automation rules in their spaces.
