5. Click **ADD CONDITION**
6. Activate **Segment** (switch status to **Active**)
7. Click **ADD SEGMENT**

**Multiple conditions (AND vs OR)**

**+ 'OR' Condition -** the member ends up in the segment once they meet one of the conditions (Member is added to the segment when fulfilling Condition-1 **OR** Condition-2).![](https://2658975168-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FcNVX03KZzmrGwJihLiEx%2Fuploads%2FZle5PgfI2pO0YyxLWZSb%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=43f6daf5-20be-4c33-bad1-f69e998e3dc4)

### Importing Custom Member List via CSV file to Static segment

{% hint style="success" %}
**To import your custom member list via CSV file, you need to:**

1. Create a Static segment (steps under Adding a Segment)
2. Click **IMPORT .CSV (limit of customers is 500k)**

![](https://2658975168-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FcNVX03KZzmrGwJihLiEx%2Fuploads%2F8saNDm56frH8AKw8nhWO%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=184c27ea-f0b0-4374-8f93-f4e94b4ae869)

4. Select the **Identification factor** that you will use in the file.

5. Import the file with the identification factor you selected in the previous step.

After uploading the file, you will see the import status under the **Imports/Exports** in the Admin Panel. After around 10 minutes, your segment should be updated with new records. 
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}

* Please note that if you want to update the current list, the new file will replace the existing data. Therefore, to retain the initial member list for this segment, you need to include them in the new file as well.
* Before uploading the file, remember to Activate the segment beforehand.
