Automatically Updating an Adobe Analytics Segment

I currently have an Adobe Analytics segment that is built using a fixed list of known franchisee IDs (approximately 1,000 IDs).

Franchisee IDs are captured at the time of login. When a new franchisee logs in, their ID is collected and should automatically be included in this segment. However, I want to avoid manually updating the segment each time a new franchisee ID is added.

This segment is used to measure:

  • The percentage of known franchisees who have logged in

  • The number of franchisees who have logged in out of the total known franchisee population

Is there a way in Adobe Analytics to make this segment dynamic so that newly captured franchisee IDs are automatically included and these metrics stay accurate without manual maintenance?

Hi ​@AthulV_ ,

We may need more clarity on the requirement as based on what you shared I’d assume you are tracking the franchisee IDs in an variable like eVar or prop whenever it is available. Let’s say that variable is eVar1 then the you can simply build a segment with logic like “Where eVar1 exists”. This will include all IDs recorded in eVar1.

The above logic may not work if you have more specific use case for this segment like you don’t want to filter all the IDs but a selected set of IDs based on some condition.

If you can share what logic you have built today and what exact requirement you have it will be more easier to help on this.

Cheers!

Most Segment definitions aren’t something that can be automatically updated.. but as ​@Harveer_SinghGi1 said, seeing what you have might help us to help you.

 

One option might be using the APIs to update your segment definition? I haven’t done this myself, but there is a segment endpoint (https://developer.adobe.com/analytics-apis/docs/2.0/guides/endpoints/segments/) that allows you to retrieve, update and create segments….
