Actions You Can Perform From the Segments Page

You can perform a number of actions from the Segments page:

  • Build a segment: You can build a segment from the table attributes, tables, and segments in your account by constructing a series of filter rules, using individual filters and filter groups. Click Build Segment and follow the instructions in “Build a Segment”.

  • View segment details: From the details panel on the Segments page, you can view information about the segment, such as overview information, segment rules, and activity history. From the details panel you can also edit the segment description and the tags. To open the details panel, click anywhere in the row for that segment. For more information, see "View Segment Details".

  • Overlap data assets: You can overlap any first-party segments and tables in your account to see the percentage and number of members those assets have in common. Check the check boxes for the assets to overlap and then click Overlap Data .For more information, see "Overlap Data Assets".

  • Manage tags: You can add custom tags to your segments to categorize them. This can help you to search, filter, and sort your segments. You can also remove tags you’ve previously added. Follow the instructions in “Manage Asset Tags”.

  • Duplicate a segment: To create a new segment that is similar to a segment you've already created, you can duplicate the original segment and then edit it to create the new segment. For instructions on duplicating a segment, see "Duplicate a Segment".

  • Edit a segment: You can edit the segment rules and description for an existing first-party segment that was created by your organization in the Data Collaboration Platform. For instructions, see "Edit a Segment".
