Advanced usage

Combine filters with AND and OR

A segment can contain multiple filter conditions. Use the relationship selector between two conditions to switch between AND and OR:
  • AND: A contact must match every connected condition to be included.
  • OR: A contact is included when it matches at least one of the connected conditions.
For example:
  • Country is India AND Create time is more than 3 days ago includes only contacts that satisfy both conditions.
  • Country is India OR Tag is VIP includes contacts that satisfy either condition.
To configure the relationship:
  1. Add two or more filters.
  2. Click the and or or connector displayed between the filter conditions.
  3. Select the relationship you want to use.
  4. Continue adding filters and setting their relationships as needed.
  5. Review the resulting contact list, then click Save Segment.
Choose AND when you need a narrower, more precise audience. Choose OR when contacts can qualify through different criteria.

Use a segment in Campaign

After saving a segment, you can reference it when configuring a Campaign audience. This lets you send a campaign to contacts who match the segment’s filter conditions without selecting recipients individually. When creating or editing a campaign:
  1. Go to Campaign and configure the campaign content.
  2. In the audience or recipient settings, choose Contact segment.
  3. Select the saved segment you want to use.
  4. Review the audience before sending or scheduling the campaign.
Give segments clear names that describe their criteria, especially when your account contains multiple campaign audiences.
