Here are some examples of segments to help you understand how you can combine attributes from various filters to create the required segment.

For more information, see the following topics:

1. Users who added items to cart multiple times but did not purchase

In this example, we are creating a segment for users who added items to their carts at least 10 times in the past 14 days but did not purchase in the past 14 days.

Use the following attributes to create the segment:

  • Recent activity filter: add_to_cart attribute
  • Recent activity filter: purchase attribute

2. Users who purchased items but did not download the app

In this example, we are creating a segment for users who purchased items within the past 6 months but have not downloaded the app as yet (their device_ids are empty).

Use the following attributes to create the segment:

  • Catalog activity filter: purchase attribute
  • User attributes filter: device_ids attribute

Catalog activity contains a subset of events available under Recent Activity. As such, you can also use the Recent activity filter here instead of the Catalog activity filter.

3. High value users who have signed up recently

In this example, we are creating a segment for users who signed up within the past 31 days and already have a lifetime revenue spend of at least 100 dollars.

Use the following attributes to create the segment:

  • Recent activity filter: purchase attribute
  • Lifetime activity filter: device_ids attribute

7. Users with recent engagement and high likelihood of purchase

Use the following attributes to create the segment:

  • Predictive scores filter: purchase intent attribute

9. Users from an uploaded list who have not engaged as yet

In this example, we are creating a segment for users who are in an uploaded list named “example list of new users”, but haven't opened an email as yet. 

Use the following attributes to create the segment:

  • Customer lists filter: Customer list group = “example list of new users”
  • Messaging filter: engagement channel = email

Use the following attributes to create the segment:

  • Messaging filter: engagement channel = email
  • Messaging filter: engagement metric = opens

"Open" events have the following attributes:

  • prefetch: if the email was automatically opened or downloaded by the email client. For example, AppleMail on iOS15+ devices.

15. Users who were first acquired from a particular campaign and who last accessed messages sent by email

  • User attributes filter: first_utm_campaign attribute OR Traffic source filter: Campaign attribute
  • User attributes filter: last_utm_medium attribute

16. Advanced nested grouping to search for specific customers

In this example, we see how to create a segment to query for customers who browsed books related to East Asian Philosophy, but did not buy any. The product catalog does not have an “East Asian Philosophy” category, so it is not possible to use a basic segment for this query. The catalog does have the Philosophy > Zen and the Philosophy > Taoism categories and the books related to East Asian Philosophy are part of one of these categories.

So let's now build the Abandoned Browse East Asian Philosophy segment to find customers who browsed books from either the Philosophy > Zen or the Philosophy > Taoism category, but did not buy any.

Step 1: We are looking for customers who abandoned browsing in the category Philosophy > Zen or the category Philosophy > Taoism.

To achieve this, we must set the outermost grouping to OR.

Step 2: Search for customers who abandoned browsing in the Philosophy > Zen category.

To achieve this, we must search for customers who satisfy both the following conditions:

  • Customers viewed an item in the Philosophy > Zen catalog within the past 7 days.
  • Customers did not buy an item in the Philosophy > Zen catalog within the past 7 days.
  1. Click Add Grouping within the outer OR grouping and add an AND grouping.

    adv_seg_step2.png

  2. Click Add Condition > Catalog Activity.

    adv_seg_step3.png

  3.  Set the condition to select customers who viewed an item in Philosophy > Zen within the past 7 days.

    adv_seg_step4.png

  4. Click Add Grouping within the added AND grouping and add another AND grouping.

    adv_seg_step5.png

  5. Change the newly created grouping from AND to NOT.

    adv_seg_step6.png

  6. In the NOT grouping, click Add Condition > Catalog Activity and set the condition to select customers who bought an item in Philosophy > Zen within the past 7 days.

    adv_seg_step7.png

Step 3: Search for customers who abandoned browsing in the Philosophy > Taoism category.

To achieve this, we must search for customers who satisfy both the following conditions:

  • Customers viewed an item in the Philosophy > Taoism catalog within the past 7 days.
  • Customers did not buy an item in the Philosophy > Taoism catalog within the past 7 days.
  1. Click Add Grouping within the outer OR grouping and add an AND grouping.

    adv_seg_step9.png

  2. Click Add Condition > Catalog Activity and set the condition to select customers who viewed an item in Philosophy > Taoism within the past 7 days.

    adv_seg_step10.png

  3. Click Add Grouping within the added AND grouping and add another AND grouping. Change the newly created grouping from AND to NOT.

    adv_seg_step11.png

  4. In the NOT grouping, click Add Condition > Catalog Activity and set the condition to select customers who bought an item in Philosophy > Taoism within the past 7 days.

    adv_seg_step12.png

The Abandoned Browse East Asian Philosophy segment is now created. The right side of the segment editor has a query summary.
