## Add a rule to a dynamic config

Targeting rules control which users receive a specific configuration from a dynamic config. To add new user targeting rules to a dynamic config,

- Log into the Statsig console at https://console.statsig.com
- On the left-hand navigation panel, select **Dynamic Configs**
- Select the dynamic config where you want to add a rule
- Click the **Add Targeting** button
- Click the **Add New Rule** button
- Select the criteria for identifying the users you want to target:

  - You can target users based on common attributes such as their operating system as shown below.

  - You can target users in a defined [segment](https://docs.statsig.com/segments/overview) as shown below.

  - You can target users who are eligible for a specific feature gate. Targeting by feature gate ensures Statsig activates the dynamic config only for users exposed to the target feature gate.

- To complete the dynamic config, select the **Edit** link to open the JSON configuration editor. Type the configuration parameters and values that your application should receive, then select **Confirm**.
