Feature Request:
When using 'Create an Expression Rule' control from /designer interface, the current rule folder is ignored when saving the new expression rule (unlike when saving a new Interface created in the same manner). The Expression Rule behavior should be consistent, and pre-populate the current rule folder from the rule folders browser, and would therefore save a lot of hassle in some use cases especially when the folder in question is named similarly to lots of other rule folders in the system and nested deeply within a rule folders hierarchy.
(second feature request: a "feature request" sub-category in Appian Community, or some other official way to submit feature requests without needing to open a support case)

Hi Mike, Design objects should be created from Appian Designer and not the Rules tab in /designer for several reasons: - Objects created in /designer are not automatically added to your application and could be forgotten during a deployment - The Rules tab will be removed in a future Appian release When creating an expression rule from Appian Designer, the parent folder is pre-populated when the system can make a smart recommendation. Additionally, in Appian 17.3, we have added Rule Folder browsing in Appian Designer. Expression rules created within a folder view in Appian Designer will have the current folder pre-populated as its parent!
