Available Filter Operators for the Segment Builder

When building a segment, the filter operator determines the relationship between the attribute you've selected and the attribute values. A number of different filter operators are available, depending on the field type for the attribute you select and on the type of asset you select.

Field or Asset Type

Is / Is Not

Is Empty / Is Not Empty

Contains / Does Not Contain

Starts With / Ends With

Is Equal To / Is Not Equal To

Is Less Than / Is Greater Than

Is Less Than Or Equal To / Is Greater Than Or Equal To

Has a Value / Has no Value

Is Before / Is After

Is Between

Is On Or Before / Is On Or After

Is True / Is False / Is Empty

Note

  • For the field types "timestamp" and "date", the "is not" operator will not be available.

  • For the field types "numeric" and "integer", the range and average values for the field are displayed below the value field in the Segment Builder to give you insights into the values that field contains (during the calculation process, you'll see a spinner and the text "Range being calculated").

  • When you use an event asset type in segment building, the operators that appear for the event itself are slightly different than those shown above (so that the rule reads more clearly):

    • at least (equivalent to "less than or equal to")

    • at most (equivalent to "is greater than or equal to")

    • more than (equivalent to "is greater than")

    • less than (equivalent to "is less than")

    • between (equivalent to "is between")

    If you continue to filter the event with event attributes, the operators for those attributes follow the usual rules for the operators displayed, depending on the field type of the selected attribute. For more information on events, see "Configure Events".
