Calculated metric in a segment?

[Martin_Vinter]

Hi,

Is there any way I can make a segment that use a calculated metric (such as "visitors where calculated metric > 100)?

I wish to use the segment in Target Premium for targeting. 

Suggestions that include workarouds and/ changes in the implementation are welcome too.

Hi Martin,

Thanks for reaching out. 

We cannot use a calculated metric in a segment. However, you can use a segment in a calculated metric. 

I can think of two things:

1. Create the logic in the segment itself. ex you can make a segment where visits 'is greater than' 100

2. Create a calculated metric and then apply a filter in the report you seek

Let me know if that helps.
