User lookup

When setting up your audience for a campaign or Canvas, you can search for a specific user directly from the composer to test if your filters and segments are set up correctly. This can also be helpful when troubleshooting a campaign or Canvas that isn’t sending as expected—for example, if users aren’t receiving a message when they should be.

User lookup is available when:

  • Creating a segment
  • Setting up a campaign or Canvas audience
  • Setting up an Audience Paths step

User Lookup feature when building an audience.

To check if a user matches the audience criteria, click Lookup User and search for a user’s external_id or braze_id.
