7. Select the Compartment that hosts the Topic to be used.
8. Select the Topic to be used.
9. Optionally add Tags to the Rule.
10. Click Create Rule.

From Command Line

1. Find the topic-id of the Event Rule which should be used for sending Notifications by using the topic name and Compartment OCID.

oci ons topic list --compartment-id=<compartment OCID> --all --query "data [?name=='<topic_name>']".{"name:name,topic_id:\"topic-id\""} --output table

2. Create a JSON file to be used when creating the Event Rule. Replace topic id, display name, description and compartment OCID.

{
  "actions":
  {
    "actions": [
    {
      "actionType": "ONS",
      "isEnabled": true,
      "topicId": "<topic id>"
    }]
  },
  "condition":
  {
    "eventType":
      ["com.oraclecloud.identitycontrolplane.createpolicy",
      "com. oraclecloud.identitycontrolplane.deletepolicy",
      "com.oraclecloud.identitycontrolplane.updatepolicy"],
      "data":{}
  },
  "displayName": "<display name>",
  "description": "<description>",
  "isEnabled": true,
  "compartmentId": "compartment OCID"
}

3. Create the actual event rule.

oci events rule create --from-json file://event_rule.json
