Creating an Audience

An audience is a group of users that share a common attribute (behavior, location, user properties, etc.). You can create and save these audiences and use them to:

Target experiences (e.g. show a promotion for your New Shoe Collection to users that purchased shoes in the past)
Break down report data (e.g. view the results of an A/B test broken down by mobile users vs. desktop users)
Export to a third party platform (e.g. export emails of users that are interested in shoes, so you can target them in your email platform)

Go to Audience › Audience Manager and select Add New.
Select a Conditions that defines your audiences (e.g. country is United States). You can add multiple conditions to define the audience using the following operators:
1. The "OR" operator expands the definition, adding users who meeting either condition 1 OR condition 2.
2. The "AND" operator refines the selection, preventing users from being included unless they meet both condition 1 AND condition 2.
For a full list of the conditions, see Audience Conditions.
Specify a timeframe for the conditions to be met.
(Advanced) In the Advanced Settings you can modify how long a user remains in the Audience before automatically being removed. The maximum value is 365 days.
Click "Save Audience". Users that currently meet the conditions will immediately be assigned to the audience.

Audience Explorer

If you're not sure which audience to create, you can go to the "Audience Explorer" and use the conditions to get immediate information about a group of users without having to create an audience. By setting the conditions, you can see the segment size, performance (e.g. conversion rate, AOV), and properties (e.g. device type breakdown, geolocation) based on a given timeframe.

You can compare your results to any existing audience using the Compare to drop down.

If you like your results, click Create Audience to create a new audience with the conditions you specified.

Saved Audiences and their reports are accessible from Audiences › Audience Manager.
