Noticing same evar showing up on 2 different segment

Hi Team,

 

I had created two segments: one with evar10=122 and then other with evar11=1233.  What I noticed was when I ran the segment, I am seeing evar11=1233 under the segment that I had created for evar10.  Can anyone tell me what might be wrong here?

 

Thanks

Can you show how you defined the segments?

 

Will help troubleshoot for you.

HI @Pablo_Childe,

 

I am using 'hit' and using evar10 equals 123. 

 

Thanks

Can you verify evar 10 segment is using equals and not contains or starts with 123?

Hi @Pablo_Childe,

 

Both of the segments are using 'equals'

It is likely due to the persistence of the eVars. Can you confirm expiry settings for evar10 & 11? Which metric are you using in workspace where you see eVar11 appearing? Is it visits?

Clearly a human error.  I realized when I was testing, I had both evar applied on the same segment.  For some reason, when I removed it, the save didn't capture it.  I had to go back and remove the evar and save it again.
