Add Exception to Rule

[ohsnapword]

I'm trying to create a rule to delete content that was watched by the user who requested it, except if it was requested by a specific user.

For example, I created a rule with the following conditions, but doesn't seem to add anything to the collection.

Section #1

Rule #1
First value
Overseerr - Requested by user (Plex or local username)

Action
Not Contains (Exact list match)

Second value
Text
Custom value
user1

Rule #2

Operator
Action on the previous rule.
OR

First value
Overseerr - Requested by user (Plex or local username)

Action
Not Contains (Exact list match)

Second value
Text
Custom value
user2

Section #2

Rule #1
Operator
Section 2's action on all previous section results.
AND

First value
Plex - [list] Users that watch the show/season/episode

Action
Contains (Exact list match)

Second value
Overseerr - Requested by user (Plex or local username)

I would prefer something like this:

Section #1

Rule #1

First value
Plex - [list] Users that watch the show/season/episode

Action
Contains (Exact list match)

Second value
Overseerr - Requested by user (Plex or local username)

Section #2

Rule #1
Operator
Section 2's action on all previous section results.
EXCEPT

Rule #1
First value
Overseerr - Requested by user (Plex or local username)

Action
Not Contains (Exact list match)

Second value
Text
Custom value
user1

Rule #2

Operator
Action on the previous rule.
OR

First value
Overseerr - Requested by user (Plex or local username)

Action
Not Contains (Exact list match)

Second value
Text
Custom value
user2

You can test specific media items with the ‘test media’ feature on the collection’s screen. Hopefully that will help you with troubleshooting and fine tuning. Also, you can export the rule to yaml format, that’s a bit easier for sharing.
