Validation sets

The validation-set page at /admin/validation/sets/new creates or updates a reusable set through UpsertValidationSet. A set groups existing reusable rules in order, so a whole set can be applied to a column in one call.

The form

• name — the set’s name (required);
• description — optional;
• global_rules — a comma-separated list of reusable rule names, in order.

At least one rule name is required. The position of each rule in the list is its order in the set, preserved when the set is applied.

Applying a set

A set is applied from the field-validation page: enter the set’s name in validation_set_name together with the profile, table, and column, and the submission calls ApplyValidationSet instead of saving a single validation.
