+Manually run enabled rules for a specified period of time for testing purposes or additional rule coverage. 
+
+IMPORTANT: Before manually running rules, make sure you properly understand and plan for rule dependencies. Incorrect scheduling can lead to inconsistent rule results.
+
+1. Navigate to the detection rules page, and do one of the following:
+* Select the **All actions** menu (**...**) on a rule, then select **Manual run**.
+* Select all the rules you want to manually run, select the **Bulk actions** menu, then select **Manual run**.
+. Specify when the manual run starts and ends. The default selection is the current day starting three hours in the past. The rule will search for events during the selected time range.
+. Click **Run** to manually run the rule.
++
+NOTE: Manual runs can produce multiple rule executions. This is determined by the manual run's time range and the rule's execution schedule.
+
+The manual run's details are shown in the <<manual-runs-table,Manual runs>> table on the *Execution results* tab. Changes you make to the manual run or rule settings will display in the Manual runs table after the current run completes.
+
+[NOTE] 
+=====
+Be mindful of the following:
+* Rule actions are not activated during manual runs. 
+* Except for threshold rules, duplicate alerts aren't created if you manually run a rule during a time range that was already covered by a scheduled run.
+* Manual runs are executed with low priority and limited concurrency, meaning they might take longer to complete. This can be especially apparent for rules requiring multiple executions.

 ** *Succeeded*: The rule completed its defined search. This doesn't necessarily mean it generated an alert, just that it ran without error.
 ** *Failed*: The rule encountered an error that prevented it from running. For example, a {ml} rule whose corresponding {ml} job wasn't running.
 ** *Warning*: Nothing prevented the rule from running, but it might have returned unexpected results. For example, a custom query rule tried to search an index pattern that couldn't be found in {es}.
