Is it possible to use scope in rules for schema that is not a part of that array?

Hi @prateek-parksmart thanks for the question. At the moment this is not supported out of the box, the rule can only check against the local (sub) schema. You could register a custom renderer for your affected control which is also capable of resolving outside of the subschema.
