# Team Segments

### Overview

The **Team Segment** feature allows administrators to create static collections or lists of teams, departments, groups, or projects within MangoApps. This is particularly useful for sharing updates, asking questions, or posting content to specific groups without having to manually select individual teams every time. You can add teams based on various criteria, manage team assignments, and control who can access the segments.

#### Key Benefits of Team Segments

* **Efficient Team Management**: Admins can organize teams into static collections for streamlined communication.
* **Targeted Communication**: Easily share updates, questions, or posts with specific teams using custom team segments.
* **Improved Organization**: Ensure that the right people receive the right content without duplicating efforts.

### Team Segment Dashboard

The **Team Segment List Dashboard** gives admins an overview of all available team segments. Here are the key sections:

* **Name**: Displays the unique name of the team segment.
* **Count**: Shows the number of users in the segment.
* **Created by**: Displays the admin who created the segment.
* **Last Modified**: Shows the date when the segment was last updated.
* **Actions**: Admins can edit, rename, duplicate, or delete segments.

### Managing Team Segments

**Creating a New Team Segment**

To create a new team segment, admins can navigate to **Users > Team Segments**, click **New Segment**, and search for teams using filters based on project, department, or custom categories.&#x20;

Once the appropriate teams are selected, the admin assigns a name to the segment and saves it.&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %}
Only **listed teams** can be added to team segments. Unlisted teams cannot be included.

Teams within a saved segment will remain fixed until an admin explicitly adds or removes teams.
{% endhint %}

Existing team segments can be modified by clicking **Edit**, where admins can add or remove teams as needed before saving the changes. If an admin wants to create a copy of an existing segment, they can use the **Duplicate** option, which replicates the team list while allowing additional modifications.&#x20;

Renaming a segment is also simple—by clicking **Rename**, entering a new name, and saving the update. If a team segment is no longer needed, it can be permanently removed using the **Delete** option.

{% hint style="danger" %}
&#x20;Deleting a Team Segment is a permanent action and **cannot** be undone.
{% endhint %}

### Team Segment Settings

Admins can further customize team segment usage by adjusting **Team Segment Settings** under **Users > Team Segments > Settings**. Here, they can define labels for team segments and control user permissions to specify who can create or use them. This ensures that only authorized users, such as domain admins, can manage team segments within the platform.

#### Using Team Segments for Communication

Admins can further customize team segment usage by adjusting **Team Segment Settings** under **Users > Team Segments > Settings**. Here, they can define labels for team segments and control user permissions to specify who can create or use them. This ensures that only authorized users, such as domain admins, can manage team segments within the platform. Once a Team Segment has been created and managed, admins can use them for efficient communication:

* **Share Updates**: Send an update to a specific team segment without having to manually enter all team names.
* **Ask Questions**: Directly ask questions to a selected group of teams.
* **Create Posts**: Publish posts to multiple teams using the **CC feature**, eliminating the need to create separate posts for each team.
