This is where overrides come in. ## Override results of a feature gate During development, it can be useful to explicitly state which users should pass or fail a given feature gate. This is where overrides come in. Overrides are based of user IDs and can be set to pass or fail for a given user ID. During evaluation of a gate, if the user ID is overridden, the overridden result will be returned immediately before any rules are evaluated. ### Adding an Override * Log into the Statsig console at [https://console.statsig.com](https://console.statsig.com) * On the left-hand navigation panel, select **Feature Gates** * Select the feature gate where you want to add an Override * Click the **Add Override** button Feature gate page with Add Override button highlighted * Select either 'Pass List' or 'Fail List' from the tabs in the dialog Manage overrides dialog showing pass and fail lists * For users you want to pass the gate, add them to the 'Pass List' * For users you want to fail the gate, add them to the 'Fail List' A user can only exist on one of these lists at a time. * Once you have added the user IDs, hit **Save** ### Deleting an Override If you add an override but later decide it is no longer needed. You can remove it so the rules will be evaluated as normal. * Log into the Statsig console at [https://console.statsig.com](https://console.statsig.com) * On the left-hand navigation panel, select **Feature Gates** * Select the feature gate where you want to add an Override * Click the **Edit Overrides** button Edit overrides button within feature gate settings * Hit the trashcan icon next to the user ID you wish to remove from a list. Override list with trash icon to remove user ID * Once you have updated the lists, hit **Save** ### Testing an Override Once your override has been added, you can test it in the "Test Gate" window by simply adding userID as a property of the user object.
