Segments

The Segments allows you to dynamically group contacts based on conditions defined using contact attributes. Segments are ideal for targeting specific audiences with personalized messaging in broadcast campaigns.

Segments are particularly useful when you want to:

  • Automatically include contacts based on specific profile data or behaviors

  • Create dynamic groups using filters like location, subscription status, or custom attributes

  • Maintain up-to-date targeting lists without manual list management

Step 3: Set Attribute Filters

In this example, we will create a condition to filter contacts who are subscribed to SMS, Email, and WhatsApp channels.

  1. Select either default system attributes or your own custom attributes to define the segment conditions. For more information, see Contact Attributes.

  2. Choose the appropriate condition operator based on the selected contact attribute.

Note

The available operators will depend on the type of the selected contact attribute.

For example, Equals and Contains are used with text fields, while Exists is commonly used with boolean or optional fields.
