How to enable/disable action rules in VAPIX 3?

Does somebody faced VAPIX 3 api? I need to enable/disable action rules for camera. Leafing through some api from the internet i have not found any specific information for action rules, so i sniffed requests from web-panel. On required action it sends 4 soap requests:

curl 'http://**.***.***.***:****/vapix/services?timestamp=1395407004744' 
-X POST -H 'Host: **.***.***.***:****'

Yes, you need to create/recreate action rules in order the enable or disable them. If you look at the SOAP actions generated form the web interface, it actually does the same.

One work-around would be to combine the conditions in your rule with a virtual (or even non-virtual) input. The input is stateful and can be toggled with the ChangeVirtualInputState method in the EventService. You need to check if your camera supports inputs, though.
