Issue rule templates in WatchGuard CloudDR are available as a beta feature.
On the Issues > Templates page, Service Providers can centrally manage and apply rules to their Subscriber accounts. A template is a rule with one or more tags that you can apply to an organization with the same tag.

- Rule Name — The name and category of the rule. Point to a rule name to show a detailed description of the rule.
