FAQPage Schema

How do I create child segments in a CDP using YAML rules?▼

Create child segments by defining YAML rule files with operators like Equal, In, Greater, TimeWithinPast, and Contain, then use `tdx sg push` to apply them. Rules filter audience data based on conditions you specify, enabling precise segment targeting across your CDP.

Can I organize segments into folders and reuse rules across multiple segments?▼

Yes, the segment workflow supports folder-based organization that lets you group related segments and share rule definitions. This structure simplifies management and reduces duplication when maintaining multiple child segments.

How do I activate segments for Salesforce Marketing Cloud and Google Ads exports?▼

Define activation blocks in your YAML configuration specifying connectors and export targets. The `tdx sg` commands handle syncing activated segments to Salesforce Marketing Cloud, Google Ads, and other connected platforms automatically.

What commands does the segment workflow provide for managing CDP segments?▼

The workflow includes `pull` to fetch parent segments, `push` to deploy changes, `dry-run` to preview updates, `delete` to remove segments, `list` to view all segments, `fields` to inspect available attributes, and `show` to display segment details.

Can I validate segment rules before pushing them to production?▼

Yes, use `tdx sg push --dry-run` to preview all changes without applying them. The workflow also includes error handling and validation to catch rule syntax issues and misconfigurations before activation.

Does this approach work for managing segments at scale across multiple exports?▼

Yes, YAML-based rules and folder organization scale across Salesforce Marketing Cloud exports, Google Ads exports, and local validation workflows, supporting complex audience structures with centralized rule management.
