The user segment sharing feature automatically populates the Add/Modify User Segments dialog box in Experience Manager with any user segments that have been defined in the Business Control Center. This is the dialog box that is used to define triggers for a cartridge, an example of which is shown below:

User segments can be created in both the Business Control Center and in the Workbench, and Experience Manager will show both in the Add/Modify User Segments dialog box. In general, to reduce the possibility for duplication, user segments should be defined in the Business Control Center and then automatically populated in the Add/Modify User Segments dialog box.

User segment sharing is a one-way relationship. When configured to do so, user segments created in the Business Control Center are shared with Experience Manager. However, user segments created in Workbench are not shared with the Business Control Center.
