I am not sure this will be answering this question, but if you are referring to the rules built on the "classic" sharepoint I am not sure these can be changed or altered by API, etc.
I may be wrong, but if I am not mistaken, the way MS has chosen to develop is now using Power Automate to handle the future of rules/automation for Sharepoint. The existing features would continue to work, but I doubt it will be kept for a long time.
