How the Segments Work in the Members Connections View

Estimated reading: 1 minute 123 views Contributors

The video above gives a quick demo on how to sort map members by segment once you have them set up for your connections. Please read below for some logic surrounding the purposes/uses for segments.
  1. The goal of segment is to filter out too many names to have a manageable group for your map users to view.
  2. The map segment is always defined by the administrator, not the map users.
  3. Each person can only belong to a single segment.
  4. Segments should defined by something your map members have in common beyond alphabetical, sex, pronoun, etc. For example: if you are mapping a school district you may segment by school, or student/teacher/administration, or athletic program/arts program/etc.
