 authorizationRule.Roles.Add("admin");
 authorizationRule.Verbs.Add("POST");

 // Add the new rule to the collection.
 authorizationSection.Rules.Add(authorizationRule);

' Using the AuthorizationRuleCollection Add method.
' Set the action property.
  authorizationRule.Action = _
  AuthorizationRuleAction.Allow
' Define the new rule to add to the collection.
authorizationRule.Users.Add("userName")
authorizationRule.Roles.Add("admin")
authorizationRule.Verbs.Add("POST")

' Add the new rule to the collection.
authorizationSection.Rules.Add(authorizationRule)

Remarks

At run time, the authorization module iterates through allow and deny elements until it finds the first access rule that fits a particular user. It then grants or denies access to a URL resource depending on whether the first access rule found is allow or deny. Access is allowed by default.
