NB: if you have not created any dictionaries, or no dictionaries appear, please refer to our support article on how to add and remove lexicons. - Click the checkboxes next to each lexicon dictionary that you wish to add into this policy. You can use multiple different dictionaries as part of a policy.
- When you are happy that you have added each dictionary to this policy, click the Create policy button on the bottom right hand side of the view.
- Your policy will now run against every message that matches the criteria that is specified. Please note: your policy will not retrospectively apply to messages that have already been ingested.
