+=== Create exception list for an individual rule
+
+Creates a rule default exception list.
+
+An exception list groups <<exceptions-api-create-exception-item, exception items>> and a rule default list is associated with a single rule. When an exception item’s query evaluates to true, the associated rule does not issue alerts even when its other criteria are met.
+
+A rule default exception list can apply to a single detection rule. To add to a rule's default exception list, simply pass in the exception items you would like to be applied to the rule. If a default exception list does not yet exist for the rule, one will be created and the exception added.
