New Product Feature Release

New Email Domain Adhoc Filter Field
Release date: September 8, 2018
​Feature Overview

In order to provide search performance optimization for email addresses when searching by email domain, KM introduced a new Email Domain Adhoc Search Field. This new search field can be found when clicking on the Adhoc Filter link in any of the Audience Views.

What is an Email Domain?

An Email Domain is the portion of the Email Address following the @ symbol.

Changes to Email Adhoc Filter Field

In order to promote the use of the new Email Domain Adhoc Filter and the resulting performance optimization, KM introduced a limit on the number of Emails allowed in the adhoc query to five (5). This limit will be enforced on any new filter created. Existing saved filters are not subject to this limitation.

Using Email Domain in Adhoc Filters

Product and Cross Product Views
​
For Product and Cross Product Views, the new Email Domain field is available in the Adhoc Filter.

To add an Email Domain to your Adhoc Filter, first choose your data comparator from the available options in the drop-down:
  • Contains - Email Domain contains the value
  • Equal - Email Domain matches the value (for optimal search performance, use Equal wherever possible).
  • Start With - Email Domain starts with value
  • End With - Email Domain ends with value
  • Does Not Contain - Email Domain does not contain the value
  • Not Equal - Email Domain does not match the value

Second, enter the Email Domains in the text box. For multiple Domains, separate each Domain with a comma (,). There is no limit on the number of Email Domains that you can add to the adhoc filter. The Email Domains should contain the portion of the Email Address following the @ symbol. Do not include the @ symbol, or your search results will be empty.

Consensus, Recency, and Record Views
For Consensus, Recency, and Record View, in order to use the Email Domain field, you must also select a Business Case.

​What is a Business Case and how is it used?

A Business Case allows you to define how to apply the Email Domain Adhoc search:
  • Email List
    • This searches emails within Consensus data.
    • Select this option if your query is intended to create an email send list.
  • Suppression List - All Products
    • This searches emails across all available products in your UAD database.
    • Select this option if your query is intended to create an email suppression list that can be used for all products.
  • Suppression List - Selected Products
    • This searches emails within the selected products included in the filter query.
    • Select this option if your query is intended to create an email suppression list that can be used for the selected products.
