fix: Update UI labeling: custom constraint -> (strategy) constraint (#2101)
* fix: change every instance of "custom constraint"

This changes every instance of "custom constraint" to "constraint" or
"strategy constraint" depending on the context.

* fix: rename custom-constraint.png to avoid confusion

* Update images-constraints

title: How to add strategy constraints
---
:::info Availability
Strategy constraints are available to Unleash Pro and Enterprise users.
:::
This guide shows you how to add [strategy constraints](../advanced/strategy-constraints.md) to your feature toggles via the admin UI. For information on how to interact with strategy constraints from an [Unleash client SDK](../sdks/index.md), visit the specific SDKs documentation or see [the relevant section in the strategy constraints documentation](../advanced/strategy-constraints.md#sdks 'strategy constraints documentation, section on interacting with constraints from client SDKs').
## Prerequisites
You'll need to have an existing feature toggle with a defined strategy to add a constraint. The rest of this guide assumes you have a specific strategy that you're working with.
## Step 1: Open the constraints menu {#step-1}
On the strategy you're working with, find and select the "edit strategy" button.

On the "edit strategy" screen, select the "add constraint" button to open the constraints menu.

## Step 2: Add and configure the constraint {#step-2}
Refer to [the _constraint structure_ section of the strategy constraints reference](../advanced/strategy-constraints.md#constraint-structure) for a thorough explanation of the constraint fields.
1. From the "Context Field" dropdown, **select the context field** you would like to constrain the strategy on and **choose the [constraint operator](../advanced/strategy-constraints.md#strategy-constraint-operators)** you want.
2. **Define the values** to use for this constraint. The operator you selected decides whether you can define one or multiple values and what format they can have.
3. **Save the constraint** first, and then **save the strategy**.

## How to update existing constraints
To update an existing constraint, find the constraint in the "edit strategy" screen and use the constraint's "edit" button.
