Note:
Display Rules are now available as Visibility Rules and Element Precision Rules on Studio.
Currently, this update is in the Beta stage and is only available for Beacons and Launchers. It will be available for other content types, such as Flows and Smart Tips in upcoming phases. To enable this feature, contact support@whatfix.com.

Visibility Rules enable you to control where, when, and to whom a Beacon is displayed. Whatfix enables you to configure Visibility Rules using Studio at the Beacon level. When you configure Visibility Rules in Studio, the rules apply only to that specific Beacon. It enables you to create a more personalized and dynamic experience for each Beacon.
