segment users from csv

Hi everyone!
I wanted to work out a system with you on how to easily segment users from a csv file.
Typical use case is as follow:
  • We email our users through Braze about an upcoming partner event
  • We get a list of emails of people who attended via excel
  • We want email them back saying thank you for coming + code
I’d like to work out a way of not going through dev team and creating a custom attribute.How would you recommend doing so?

    You can create a custom attribute by just adding another column to your import file. For instance, have a file that has external_id in a row & whatever attribute you want in the second row. This should solve your issue I suppose.

    Yeah, you can have a custom attribute like event_code that you can then re-use for future events (if the same people sign up again) - however that will overwrite the previous event code that user had stored int heir profile
