Copy, edit or rename a segment

Learn how to copy, edit or rename an existing segment in your account.

Overview

There are a number of ways you can make changes to previously created segments. If, for example, you want to build a segment similar to an existing one, it’s sometimes easier to create a copy and then edit the copy. Or, if you decide you want to change the rules of a segment, you can edit it to include more, fewer, or different contacts. You can also change the name of a segment.
