# Edit an Arc policy

# Edit an Arc policy {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Australia  
Updated October 22, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
Change who an ServiceNow Arc policy applies to, how much weight it carries, or whether it's enforced, without rebuilding its rules.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn_ai_governance.ai_steward and sn_app_arc.admin

## About this task

Editing a policy changes its settings, such as its user criteria and priority. To change the rules inside the policy, edit them from the policy's tabs instead. For details, see [Edit a rule in an Arc policy](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/Fc5mYnC5LKtggAwHYFjJIg "Adjust how an existing ServiceNow Arc rule behaves, such as a gate mode, a pattern's priority, or a network destination, without recreating it.").

You can't edit the default Arc policy. To pause a policy without deleting it, clear its Active option.

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllAI Control TowerHomeGovernPoliciesArc policies.
2. Select the policy you want to edit.
3. Select Edit.
4. Change the policy's Policy Name, User Criteria, Priority, Active, or Description values.  
   A change to User Criteria or Priority changes which users get this policy's rules and which rules win conflicts. For what each field does, see [Create an Arc policy](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/nRQyQecN9oZaWQj43IiBEA "Give a team its own ServiceNow Arc rules by creating a policy that applies to the users you choose and takes precedence over the default Arc policy.").
5. Select Save.

## Result

The policy page shows the updated settings, and the change reaches the users the policy covers at their next policy sync.
