API to create/update Segments

Currently we have to manually create a segment to export users that meet a criteria. It would be great if we had an API endpoint to create/update segments to help manage and report on the data.

Hi pcapazzi 

Have you had a look at the Braze docs for APIs, there is quite a lot of good info in there? Here's a couple of links that are relevant for your use case:

API Segment Identifier
You will find the API identifiers search at the bottom of the Settings -- > APIs and Identifiers page

REST API Permissions --> then click on Segments

Let us know if this is what you are after. 😊

That is not what I'm after.

Currently we can only create a segment using the web UI. There is no API endpoint to create or update a segment. I'm suggesting developing an endpoint that can do this. 

Currently we can do the following using APIs:

  • List Existing Segments
  • Get Definitions of Existing Segments
  • Export User Data Identified in an Existing Segment

What we cannot do with segments via the API:

  • Create a segment
  • Update a segment (change the definition)
