there is not ruleId to delete alarm rule

Error message

there is not ruleId to delete alarm rule

What it means

DELETE /alarmRule requires the rule's ID in the request body; when rule.getRuleId() is empty the controller refuses the delete with HTTP 400, because without a ruleId the service cannot identify which rule to remove.

Solutions

1. Fetch the rule list (GET /alarmRule) and copy its ruleId into the delete body
2. Ensure ruleId is a non-empty string in the DELETE JSON payload
3. If the rule was recreated, re-fetch its ID rather than reusing a cached one

Example fix

// before
DELETE /alarmRule {"applicationName":"myApp","checkerName":"ERROR_RATE"}
// after
DELETE /alarmRule {"ruleId":"1723456789_0","applicationName":"myApp","checkerName":"ERROR_RATE"}

if (!rule.ruleId) throw new Error("ruleId is required to delete an alarm rule");

function hasRuleId(r) { return r != null && typeof r.ruleId === 'string' && r.ruleId.length > 0; }

try { ... } catch (HttpClientErrorException e) { if (e.getStatusCode().value() == 400) { /* re-fetch ruleId then retry */ } else { throw e; } }

When it happens

Trigger: Sending a DELETE /alarmRule request with a Rule JSON body lacking the ruleId field or containing an empty string.

Common situations: Clients that built the delete body from a rule object fetched before rules were re-created (stale/empty ruleId); scripts that only pass applicationName and checkerName.
