Segment with product syntax

Question

Hello, we are using a product syntax with some custom eVar. Data looks clean, but when creating segment we have trouble having the granularity we are looking for without doing an extract.

For example, in my array :

product1 : eVar3 = Hello, eVar4 = World

product2 : eVar3 = Hi, eVar4 = Planet

product3 : eVar3 = Hello, eVar4 = Planet

if user A has :

product1 : eVar3 = Hello, eVar4 = World

product2 : eVar3 = Hi, eVar4 = Planet

I want to target those who have "eVar3 = Hello and eVar4 = Planet", the problem is that user A will be include in my segment as it lives within the same hit.

Is there a way to create a segment to identify the proper product element in these cases?

Sadly no... This has been a complaint for a long time that we really need a way to create segments that will bring back only the matching values within the hit, rather than all values inside the share hit.

There is however one option available to you. In table filters, as well as breakdowns can get around some of the limitations.

For example, if you pull in the specific "eVar3 = Hello" into your table (or pull all of eVar3 as your initial breakdown and filter for "Hello"), then break that down by eVar4, you can then filter eVar4 for "Planet"

This should get you the correlated "Hello" and "Planet" combination.

When you use breakdowns like this, it does maintain the logic within the sets...
