Audience

Audience allows you to add participants to the program. Add the audience to your program through the following sources: 

• Segments
• Data Designer
• Query
• CSV
• Events

Note: Each program can have only one source. For segment or Data Designer sources, you can select just one segment or Data Designer. However, for a CSV source, you have the ability to upload up to five CSV files within a single program.

To select a data source:

1. Click the Audience step on the Programs Editor page. The Audience slide-out pane appears. 

2. From the Source tab, select the required source: 

   1. For the Data Designer or Segments sources, select the required Data Designer or Segment from the drop-down list.
      Note: You can click Create Segment or Create Data Designer to navigate to the respective Segment or Data Designer creation page.

   2. For Query source, 

      1. Click New Query Setup. The query creation page appears.

      2. Select a Data Source. The objects in that data source appear.

      3. Drag and drop the required objects and create a query. 

      4. Click Save & Sync.

   3. For Events source: 

      1. Select the required Event Topic.

      2. Select the required Event.

      3. Select the Event Version. 

      4. Click Done. 
         For more information on events, refer to the Add Participants to a Program article.
         Note: When Events are used as a source, you can change the data types of each field in Source Fields using the dropdown menu next to each field.

   4. For the CSV source, upload a CSV file.
      Note: You can upload a maximum of five CSV files.
3. Click Done. The mandatory fields are identified and the uniqueness criteria are auto-selected. All fields from the source are available for tokens and conditions selection, without the need for field mapping.
4. Wait for the selected source to load and the audience to be synced.

5. Click Sync All to synchronize participants with the program. If changes are made to the source data in a draft program, a prompt appears with the following options:

• Clear and Sync: Removes all previously synced participants and syncs the updated participant list.
• Sync Only New: Retains the existing participants and adds only the newly identified participants.

Note: If you select Sync All while the program is in Draft mode, participants are synced based on the current audience criteria at that moment. When the program is later published or scheduled as a recurring program, the first scheduled run will not re-sync participants. Instead, it uses the participants manually pulled in through the Sync All action—unless those manually synced participants are cleared beforehand.

6. (Optional) Click the Audience Synced number to view the synced audience.
7. (Optional) Click the View option in Source Fields to view the fields used as tokens in the program.

Note: 

• You can view the Source Fields that can be used to modify the data types when a CSV is added.
• Initially, when syncing test participants, only 20 participants are included. The 'Sync All' function syncs data for up to 25 fields from the source, though all fields are available for token mapping. After publishing the program, only the fields used in the program are retained.

8. You can upload additional CSVs to add more participants to the program.
   Notes: 

• You can upload a maximum of 5 CSV files to any source.
• You can create the CSV file manually, ensuring it has the same number of columns and column names as the previous source. Alternatively, you can export the CSV file from the Audience Synced section and remove the following columns: Participant ID, Participant State, and Participant Type. Then, rename the Company Id and Recipient Email Address columns to match the field names in the previous source.

9. Click Update to modify the program's advanced settings as listed below:

• Mandatory Fields: Required to identify the company/relationship and email of the participant in the program. 
• Uniqueness Criteria Fields: Set criteria to ensure unique entries.
• Audience Re-entry Criteria: Define conditions for re-entering the audience.
• Advanced Criteria: Additional settings for the program.
• Audience Exclusion List: Manage the list of excluded participants.
• Action Execution Schedule: Schedule when actions will take place.

For more information on these configurations refer to the Add Participants to a Program article.
