Connect segments to sequences

After you create and activate a segment, connect the segment to a sequence. Leads, opportunities, accounts, contacts, and insights that are connected to the segment automatically start the sequence.

You can connect segments to sequences in your work assignment settings or using the sequence designer.

Segments and assignment rules are part of the work assignment feature. Work assignment is available in sales accelerator version 9.1.23074.10021 and is rolling out in phases in different regions. Learn more about work assignment.

Can't find the options in your app?

There are three possibilities:

  • You don't have the necessary license or role.
  • Your administrator hasn't turned on the feature.
  • Your organization is using a custom app. Check with your administrator for exact steps. The steps described in this article are specific to the out-of-the-box Sales Hub and Sales Professional apps.
