Create a dynamic audience

Prev Next

A dynamic audience is fluid, meaning it will update automatically based on the rule set that dictates membership, e.g. if a user is assigned to a certain position or moves to a certain location. Dynamic audiences are useful if you need to manage large groups where membership is likely to change frequently, such as an audience of staff joiners.

To create a dynamic audience, follow these steps:

  1. Go to Quick-access menu > Audiences.
  2. Select the Add new audience tab.
  3. Complete the settings as required. 
  4. Click Save changes.

You will be automatically taken to the Rule sets tab for this new audience. This will allow you to set the criteria for membership
